Great weather, long, long lines. Fast speeds. 1 short delay for a bike oiling down the track and one short delay for a car with hung throttle going in the grass/dirt off the end..no damage all is good.

The track record for cars was broken and reset at least twice.. Last I heard the Hinson Vette went 244mph (or 241) setting a new Ohio tack record and surpassing Maxton's car track record. Lots of fast speeds.. Great crowds and very calm and patient racers.

I think they went 242+. They had trouble getting it going but about a third of the way down the turbos spooled up and it quickly became a speck on the horizon!  :-o

Hooley did 210+ with tire spin and lost a chute cable. Charles is knocking on that 2 door again!   :cheers:

Valerie Thompson did 198+ on a stock BMW! Down one tooth tomorrow!

There will be more thick air in the morning for everyone! :cheers:

A big thanks to Joe - Keith & all the volunteers !  :cheers:   The team of Riley - Fischer & Witt,  the Gray Ghost Project,  had a great time going fast & seeing some old friends and experiencing the new diggs for ECTA.  What a great new place for some land speed racing fun.  Looking forward to next year

Thanks  :cheers:

Well the track was awesome as was the weather... I had high expectations and achieved 98.42% results.
I Ran the C motor up a class in B/CGALT , existing record was 174.xxx.. My goal was 200.000 or better.. My best run of the meet was a 196.833 mph. For a new Class Record, but short of my 200 goal... I so wanted two 200 Clubs in the same year...but it was not meant to be.. It was an awesome meet..I want to thank the Out to Lunch Bunch Race Team from Rocky Mount NC,(Robbie, Tim and Travis)  at the last minute they volunteered to come crew for me..also thanks to Mike Rechien and Mike Witt (my Chicago connections..lol) for keeping me focused and encouraged..as well there help in the pits with a few changes.

This weekend proved I only need two things to get my N/A C Motor to 200 mph.
1. More Money 2. 50/75 more HP..

I hope EVERYONE has a great off season,

THANKS TO THE STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS AT ECTA AND THE OHIO FACLITY,, none of us could come play if it was not for ALL OF YOU.
