This past weekend I got the Camaro slowed down to the high 8.90-9.00 range. I did screw up/didn't rip the throttle enough & went 151.xx mph on one run. I'm hoping to find time to get the parachute installed this summer. Then not worry about going over 150. Plus, it's a safety factor.

I went 4 rounds on Sat. & out in the 1st round Sun. Too many distractions with helping 3 other racers with their set-ups & our 4-month-old grandson being at the track for his first time.

The drag quad had the bad bogs on Sat. due to trying a 1.84 final gear ratio. We changed to the known 1.94 ratio for Sun. & made it to the semi-finals.
