Many thanks to all from Team Tinyvette. It was a great weekend and great racing. Everyone we met was helpful and friendly. This was our first time on the salt and while we did it largely for the novelty and PR value as the date approached the bug to do well kicked in. We did not do as well as expected, who does, and we broke, who doesn't, but the bug did bite. I will try to bring the rest of the team next year.
As for our weekend, we got through tech for the 130 mph event OK and while there got tech'ed for 150 mph club and other than arm restraints/window net we were good to go for that, so we borrowed arm restraints form people we had never met (the beautiful orange hot rod, #55), paid the difference, and ran the 2-mile course. We had no chance of getting to 150, but the longer course sounded like lot more fun.
My first run, in a 1969 Opel GT with a somewhat warmed Opel motor, ran a 117.9 mph at 2 miles. The next morning we ran a 117.2 followed by a 76.6. Yes, we blew up. Pretty sure we melted a piston. We were done at 10 AM on Sunday.
We had time to relax a bit and socialize with our neighbors, return the arm restraints, and Kurt ever got a little time in the air in his powered hang glider (difficult take-off at 5000 ft and in no wind). He got some great aerial video and I have four-camera in-car. We'll be getting together this weekend to merge the two.
Again, thanks to all.
