Just some pics taken this season. Enjoy!
Finally got around to getting the video done. I'm struggling with it, but I'm going to keep working at it and making content! Got some tech stuff coming up this winter, as well as some things I found on the car that need upgrading or improved. I'm losing a bunch of ET from frictional losses, so that's going to be a big thing to fix before next season. Also found a ring seal and crankcase vacuum issue that's going to get fixed as well. Stay tuned, more to come!
Labor Day races and our racing season here in Alaska is done. One run yesterday, had my opponent covered pretty good, felt the car get a little loose at about 1000', pedaled it instead of driving through it, and gave up .008 at the stripe.. Uhg....oh well, that's racing! Now it's going to be time for going through everything, looking for a few more hp and addressing a few issues. It's a never engine story, I'm just glad everybody here is along for the ride! If you follow me on YouTube, watch for another crummy video to drop later this week. I'll also be starting a new "series" on what I do to freshen my engine and trans, and some tricks I will be using to try and free up some power. Stay tuned!
Well, things didn’t happen today. Daughter made one attempt at a run but spun hard twice. My class was called due to rain so no passes down the track today. We’ll see what happens tomorrow!

Today was a bit somber. I had to say goodbye to my old dragster. We’ve had a great run, lots of wins and good times, and now it’s time for a new chapter. With any luck we’ll meet again, only this time as competitors. Lots of memories with that car, and a lot of emotions as well. Been through a lot together. Yeah I was attached to it but sometime you’ve got to move on and that time is now. I hope the new owner enjoys it and has as much fun with it as I did. Fairwell old friend!
Finally getting around to posting another video! Check it out!
Well, sometimes things don’t work out as planned. Due to the weather, races have been cancelled today. Not what we were hoping for but it is what it is. Next and final event is Labor Day, so we’ll see you then!
