I race a 6 race series up here in MI. A $35 to enter $1000 to win no electronics street legal door cars on ''street tires'' bracket race. Buy backs in round one or two but once you loose a round your out of the points even if you buy back in and win the race.

Race 1 was cancelled due to rain then rescheduled. Lost in the 4th round no buy back.
Race 2 didn't go as there was a 60% chance of rain. Race was rained out in the 3rd round. No points for me.
Race 3 lost in the 5th round no buy back.
Race 4 lost in the quarter finals no buy back.
Race 5 lost in the finals also with no buy back.
Race 6 was cancelled die to rain.

The unexpected part was that I won the points championship for the series without winning a race. Not having to buy back in all season kept me in the points and I ended up 39 points ahead.

 

That's awesome! Congrats on being points champion!

 

Congrats Al....Way to go. Now use part of that $1,000 to buy my nitrous system and put that car into the 9's

I will get you some times on my car this week. I did go a couple weeks ago in 80+ heat and 80 humidity and got a best of 11.90 at 116mph. I couldn't get the car to hook to well. The best I was able to do is a 1.72 60'. I just ordered new 315/35/17 MT ET Streets today. So, I hope with those and 65 degree low humidity weather I can get the car into the 11.5s or better.

Oh yea, fixed my vacuum leak off the back of the manifold too.

Did I already tell you my results from a few weeks ago?

 

Already have a dry kit just haven't installed it yet.
Yeah you already told me how slow your car is
Good luck with the new tires and cool air.

 

thanks for the congrats.

 

Ouch, that hurt. 11.50s or better I hope today. Get that dry kit installed. I want to hear you hit the 9s.

I need some weight reduction too, car is to heavy.

I'll shoot you an update tomorrow.

 

thanks
