After a few weeks off, she was in the finals again tonight! Her lights were better than ever! .516, .518, .525, .590 (other car red lit) .539. and finally a .555? (haven't seen the t/s) in the final against a S/P (electronics) car with throttle stop. The E car threw her 'cause she caught him early but then he flew by and backed into her at the stripe. Also our dial was a little agressive since it went 10.79 the round before but as soon as she got back to the lanes it was time to go. I think the lack of cool down caused her to run a 10.83. That's three final round appearances lately on Wednesday nights, one of these times will be the icebreaker! I'm a proud papa. SteveW p.s. The car was dialable too! Thanks to the consistant 60'ers from the CalTracs and Alex's 'glass monoleaf springs. 1.43-1.44 60'ers all night long with little 10-26 MT slicks.
