Small turn out (no idea on numbers).  We had three rounds.  No incidents that I know of.  Seemed like a bunch of records were set.  It was 'hot' but not miserable.  Everyone packed everything up in preparation for Speed Week.  The end.

Rick Ran a great two passes of 258 and I found out its better to keep the rubber side down.   :-D

We did run 250+ on our dirt bike...Womack and I both ran our second fastest passes ever in the dirt, he ran 244+ and I should have moved to the #3 position for the bikes in the points chase.

Derek won the automotive points chase and I believe GG won the club championship.  Len Jones should have won the points on the bike side with his sidecar.

911 car broke something today after yesterday's 235 mph run.


Not many people were in the Lanes today when we started the racing..beautiful weather and no wind..Rick was the talk of the event with his 258 mph passes.  :cheers:

Kent Riches bike raced by Dustin ran I believe 174 on a recently set new record speed of 189 mph and it finished second in the SCTA Motorcycle points championship.

Got a text from Steve Papi Chappell after he set the 1650 prod at 195 and change. It was a nice interruption while in the shop working on my own.
Hurray SPC!

It's easy enough to start a new topic, so maybe one of these days it'll happen.  I guess I could do it - stay tuned.
