Drags was pretty cool this past weekend. Saw an off-road style jump over the manhole (by Kent), saw a blow over (by Kent), saw a cross the center line and into the wall (by Kent), saw a copy of the intercept missle trying to go straight up (by Kent), saw a body blow off...twice (by Bobby), saw mid 70's mph by the .21 rails in the 1.9s, saw a funny car back off before the finish line and still run a 1.97, saw the same funny car run the whole 1/4 mile on it's wheelie wheels (lucky it was going straight...no steering with the front tires in the air).

.21s on 40% are the way to go. But the small block .15s should get close. Tires are the big $$$ issue. If you wanna go fast, gotta run the soft stuff. Which means 1 set, 1 day...maybe. I did see some Flintstones style tires...ouch! Lots of traction compound and fuel too!
