Exclamation News From Cecil

Just got back from Cecil. Johnny blew up his wifes Harley truck. Was on his way to a great run too, and then it blew up. Trying to download some pics now to show you some of the action. I made a couple of passes and just couldn't break into the 12's. Two 13.0's...with full weight, moderate tune and half bald F1's. Not too bad I guess. Well, gotta go and download some pics. Later!!!!

P.S. First time at the track for me, HAD A BLAST. Perfect racing weather, too.

I hate to see anything blow up, but I guess when you shoot for a goal thats what happens. Oh well, it will get a Built motor now and become a BEAST.

What about SAL? Or Vinnie? or JL's L? Charlie?

Sorry, but I don't know most of those people yet. Kinda new around here. Couldn't stay too long so I didn't see a lot of people race. Didn't see anyone L's do a 10 sec run. Pictures are downloading right now. Got one of Johnny blowing up the Harley truck. Will post in a few. Later!

Dont want to give too much info
But Yes Sal ran a 10 on the new Motor
(great #, but not a new best)

I understand Johnny didn't get any full passes in under full power
so no new numbers to report there.

Two Blown motors,
one was Sue's HD, almost got that 11 sec run in though "12.0's"
the other you'll hear about ....
