Yesterday I went to Evadale Raceway for their Grand Opening and had a great day of racing..It was a Mopar vs GM shootout with the winner of the Mopar bracket racing the winner of the GM bracket..I made it to the final of the GM bracket to only break out by 3/100's of a second against a car dialed in at a 8.84...
He ran 3 over with a .525 light and I ran a 3 under 11.98 on a 12.01 dial with a .538 light..Its pretty awesome to see a 8.90 car go by at 150 mph in the lights !!!
In the 5 rounds of racing I had to run cars dialed in at...9.95 , 10.93 , 10.23 , 12.41 (the only race I left first) and then the 8.84 T/A..After the 3rd round I was the only true street car left running..
The car was consistant as usual and the driver finally didn't have any brain farts during eleminations..
The Evadale track is super nice and smooth and its nice to run a place where all the clocks work..
The track from here on out should only get better because they are putting more stands for spectators and lights to be able to run at night..Plus this place is only about an hour from our house which makes it really nice...
Jamie and Jen it was nice seeing ya'll there and hope you get the Malibu up and running soon...
