TNT on 10-17-2009

We got there when the gates opened 5 PM. Mid 70's and clear out, but the temps dropped quickly, especially the track temp. Our first run there was still some daylight left, but it didn't help. Car left with the wheels up, but got loose about 100' out, pedaled it, rode the centerline, got it back in the groove, got back after it, lit the tires right up, sashaying across the stripe, 6.60 @ 85 MPH Decided to make another run, and didn't want to let it cool down any more, so fuel, tire pressures, quick check over, and right back in line, left a little soft, got it to go down thru there, wasn't pretty, but ran a 6.22 @ 95 MPH dragging the laundry, as it got a little loose 3/4 track, and I hit the chutes, which straightened it right out !! Thanks for reading us, will post the video soon.
