Results from Northstar

Saturday was calling for rain but the clouds kept their moisture and gave us a very cool and enjoyable evening. We made 3 good hard runs with the best being a 4.14 @ 192.72 mph. Northstar is a great little eighth mile track with nice facilities and great fans. We had a great time, were treated well and best of all we seem to have turned a corner with our setup on the race car. The incremental times are getting down where they should be. David said he was driving a whole different race car than we had at Tulsa! So now the tear down and preparation for Norwalk OH begins. We have 3 weeks to get her ready for the trip up to Lake Erie and Randy and I are going to race our flathead dragster next Saturday at MOKAN in Missouri so I am going to be a busy boy!
Chris Graves was snapping photos at Northstar Saturday night and got some good shots. View them here: http://www.maxcacklephotos.com/
David Pace and the Dearmores had a lot of friends and family at this event and it was nice to meet all of them and for them to see what this is all about. David's brother got some video of the car running at night with nice big header flames. He is going to get the video emailed to us so hopefully I can post it here or at least post a link to it so it can be viewed by our blog readers! I am really excited about that!
Thanks to all who came out and watched and thanks to all our fans who come here to keep updated on our adventures in Top Fuel drag racing!!!!

Great to read that you are getting things figured out! Can't Wait to see what the Speed Merchants Dragster will do in the 1/4.
