Eaton drag day at Milan

[Hack Goby]

Great Motor City turnout today at Milan with alot of new best times even though temps were in the high 80`s.I dropped two hundredths from 14.53 to 14.51 but even though I only won one race my best reaction times were .0627,.0922,.1232,
.1503 all the cars I raced had more power than me but I drilled them at the line each time.I need more power :D

First off I would like to thank Eaton for inviting us out to race today. It was a good event. I got to run my car for the first time since the Trilogy install. I found out today that I am not a racer. I ran six times with 13.33 at 104.4 mph being my best run. I ran 13.3's four times. It was a warm humid day. I will shot for a better run at the Dream Cruise week.

Sorry about your loss. It would have been fun having you there.

We were most likely the only car club there but I think we had at least 15-16 Marauders plus a couple of Mustangs and throw in the new supercharged F-150 we were the pimp Daddy`s. :D Also Mike AKA,King Fubar was there.

I thought about you guys this morning!

Would have really liked to have joined you.
Glad to see there was a great representation of Eaton powered Trilogy Motorsport Mercury Marauders :D
And Lidio, Jerry Barnes and Steve Babcock!
Lidio keeps messin with #1 and It won't be allowed at the track:D

Great R/T's Hack,

[Hack Goby]

Deebar,had the best run in the heat at 12.01 of all the Trilogy cars

Darryl could have done better. Ask him about the guy tapping his shoulder and advising him that the other car had left.

What a GREAT time that was!!! And a BIG "thank you" to Eaton!!

Yep, the air was a bit too soupy for top run times to be posted, but it was fun none the less. I was hoping for more with the extra 40rwhp bump I made this spring, but the warm air worked in the opposite direction and I ended up with a somewhat disappointing 12.3. Traction problems abound as well.

But....its hard to complain when "crappy" conditions net 12.3 times:)

For the record, the best Trilogy run was done by Lidio in Dave's car. Lidio pedaled Dave's car to a new best of 11.91....not shabby for such a hot humid day. In cooler air, Dave's car is an easy 11.7 or better now.

Deebar and I should be tickling the high 11s in better air as well. But, no need for bench racing....the good air will be with us soon.

Alright, so my reaction time isn't the best. I like the pretty lights. :D

That's okay Daryl, I fell alseep at the light once or twice myself :sleepy:

I will say this, no matter the results, I love track days ....and it gives my an excuse to use my favorite smilie:
