We had a great time at Belle Rose as usual! Mother Nature was a factor. Some bits from the pits and our trip.
Our Nova enjoyed some great traction, but the headwind was brutal! Sunday was a different story with a tailwind!
I know there was a V10 car that set the record in pretty slow conditions. It was 1.25 under! Normal Belle Rose weather would have probably put it a couple tenths quicker!
We always come down to visit our racin buddies, Dave Crouchet and Mike Mayronne, Dave shows off his trackside culinary skills here.
Belle Rose is the only race I gain weight at!
Mike Mayronne showed us his soon to be returning 69 Z28 stocker! For you youngsters, yes 69 Z28s are Stick Only! (google it)
Other notes:
On test and tune, we needed to get some mods done to our traction bars. Jimmy Hidalgo opened his shop to us and let us use anything we needed to get going!
Kenny Bomar broke a mainshaft in his CC/S 69 Camaro. Charley Downing let Kenny borrow his spare and fresh Jerico to race this weekend! Kenny said he had his best et ever with it! Nice act of sportsmanship from Charley and Downing Racing for sure!
The weather on the way home was not great and some of the raod conditions were bad! We drove by Gateway near St.Louis. It was snow covered. Last year when I drove by the same weekend, they were racing!
