TEASER!! I got notice of another winner tonight when I got home from yet another test session @ Piedmont Dragway, and a well deserved one at that. I'll get it typed up and sent to Faye in the morning so she can post it but I'll give you a little hint in that it's long over due for one our long time members!!

He didn't say but I think this is a "no box" class and remember also that this is a "stick shift" car. Maybe Chuck will clear this up for us.

Thanks guys.
Ken's correct, it is a no box stick car only race. Clutchless and Lenco trannys are permitted but no release devices or air shifters. The main basic rule is you have to leave with your leg and shift with your arm.
It was a good night of racing and I qualified #1 with a 8.14. The car was making a slight move to the left but I didn't want to change anything once eliminations started so I'll get to that before the next race. The Aldermans were there but they over powered what I would consider a marginal track on both attempts then called it a day. That car would have been a full second quicker than me if they could have got down the track.
Greg was playing with his go-pro and put together a pretty cool video. I will post a link to the video in the show your stuff section.
