Had a blast at the March Meet in Bakersfield this last weekend! We qualified with a 7.69 in A/gas (7.60 index) and although we got the holeshot in the second round, it wasn't quite enough to beat our competitor who ran a perfect 7.60 to our 7.64. Oh well, all in all a great first outing!

Right on Steve. Congrats on a successful outing. :thumbsup:

put together a great little video from this last weekend at the Governors Cup in Sacramento.



Although I cut a .010 light in the 2nd round, our opponents 7.66 beat our 7.72. We were about a tenth off due to the 100+ degree temps. Oh well, all in all a great time with great friends!

Great video Steve. Been a long time since I've attended the drag races. Time to remedy that.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Nice 66 if you can call it that. Needs a couple 98's hanging off the front of it...:flag2: :beavis:

Haha, lets not get greedy! (would be fun though :drive: )

Steve -- first off - great car - and a very kool video! Your Nova is just bad ass!


The .04 and on the trailer is what finally turned me off to drag racing... all the hurry up and wait - and then so close... but done. I used to run a '55 handyman wagon - nose up - straight axle... D/gasser. That was a few decades ago...

It's why I love the road race track days -- way more driving time than I can even handle - with a nice rest in-between.... and a couple days of that and it's all a guy needs or wants until we do it all again.

Thanks Greg, I've been a drag racer all my life and watched my pro stock icons in the 80s run in the 7's in a doorslammer and that has been on my bucket list ever since. I used to run motorcycles at T-hill and buttonwillow and I try to auto cross whenever I can wrestle the keys away from a customer as well. If its got power and wheels, I'm in. A couple years back this oppurtunity to partner up with a very good friend, mentor and second Dad to me came up. he's getting up there in years and has some serious health issues he's battling lately so its been a great way to get him out of the house to see his racing buddies and be around the sport he loves so much. Not to mention Im also obviously having a blast!
I guarantee I'll be out in a "road race/trackday car with you guys in the future, but right now this is what im focusing on. Most important its the "bonding" with friends old and new in the pits no matter what kind of racing it is.:cheers:
