Re: D1 S/st Racer Cleans House
Good job, Matt!
Just remember that in the Spring come 1/4 mi. racing - NO DUMPING AT THE 99.5 ft. mark!! On second thought, you can do that if you are in the lane next to me!!
Tom & I went to watch this "event" as Frank, Jean, & Matt have talked about NOTHING else for the last few weeks! ALL street legal cars, Gary. Frank said a few race cars showed and were turned away. Looked like tons of fun for when your race equipment is winterized and you have already started gnawing at the bit!!
Think I'll get my street car ready for the next one. Tom is already trying to figure out how to put a delay box in his G6 for the handicapped races.
George - all you need is about a 400 ft. strip of asphalt/concrete. No water was used but that may be due to the fact it was on a straightaway at Waterford Speed Bowl! They used an old (and I mean OLD) timing system but it worked like it was supposed to. Frank introduced us to the gentlemen who were responsible for putting this together. They really want to do more of them and have some places in mind. We suggested the old airport at Pratt & Whitney in East Hartford.
Think of all the possible places in your own area!! This could turn out to be as great as the Bracket Tree Nationals that Mike Kent puts on every Jan.!!!
Are we really that sick that we look for things like this until racing season starts again?!?
OK - I've never put this many words in 1 post!! Starting to sound like you, Jason O. I'm going to sign off now and give my 2 typing fingers a break!!!
