The track did improve. First run was wet, but by the time I got my second run, the track was mostly dry and I ran 4 seconds faster than my best time with the old motor. If we get a dry track we should do even better, unfortunately, there’s more rain in the forecast.

Some photos from the weekend.

Added a decal only because it seemed appropriate.

Rain, rain, rain. First run Saturday was in the wet and, due to what had happened at Pagoda, I crawled up the hill.

The rain finally stopped and David finished the Sharpie on his new sunroof delete panel.

The track began to dry and get faster.

My second run went well. I was 4 seconds faster than my all time best time with the old motor.

I was looking forward to further runs in t he dry but due to some timing issues we ran out of time. There is always Sunday. Sunday morning was dark and cloudy and just when I reached the paddock the rain came. I sat in the truck until it slowed. By this time I had made up my mind to not risk racing in the wet so I swapped tires and hitched her up and began to drag her home. I still got a third place plaque.

The posted results showed a finish line speed of 114.  Who Hoo!
