...so I am.
This race season was a trying time. Seemed like it was one problem after another. First is was handling issues due to the rack and pinion setup I added in late winter/early spring. Then in July at the Nova Gathering, I threw a rod out of the motor. I got that fixed in August and enjoyed some success. Then last weekend I tore the ring and pinion out of the rearend. At least that one won't cost much to fix.
The good news is a new personal best ET, MPH and 60'. Two weekends ago I ran a 5.49@126.75 with a 1.283 60' on the 26x8.5" slicks. That puts me in contention for wins again if I can run that well consistently. Actually, I think it can go faster than that. Maybe low .40s?
