What's your 2025 goal?

Justin Graham · 01-03-2025, 01:12 PM

What's got you motivated for the 2025 season?

Looking back on the same question I posted a year ago, it was very interesting who had some good comments. Two commenters went on to have a spectacular season in 2024. I feel I did well in reaching the goals I set for last year, Green lights and rounds.

So for the '25 season, I'll keep those for this year too and I'll add, getting past the quarters and a better points finish.

HAPPY NEW YEAR CLASS RACERS!!

I want to have as much fun as you do when you're at the race track!

Besides that?

- Make it to Indy for B/SA class (went to Dallas last year instead)
- Win a National Event

Top 10 in the division. Win a divisional.

I have a few things.

1. Run a full 14 race season with NHRA for the first time.

2. Get the 2024 Camaro finished and racing.

3. Make the 572 COPO more driveable.

4. Have my latest project racing at the Charlotte Spring race.

5. Most important, HAVE FUN!!

I'm curious as to what are your driveability issue(s) with #3. If you wish to share.

As for #5, I agree! I lost track of that many...many years ago & about 5 years ago found it again & plan on keeping it #1.

This was the first 572 COPO completed and delivered. I handed it over to Steve Foley to drive and then Jeff Warren. Until the Fall of 2024, I had never driven it other than off the trailer, etc. The car was pretty decent, but it only liked the best prepared surfaces. I think that I figured most of that out. Now, I need to change the shifter and valvebody. I have a huge problem with that Hurst reverse manual shifter...
