I didn’t lose
 8 rounds, foot-braking to a Mod Class Win and then went on to take the "King Of The Track win"! Car was on fire and driver wasn’t too bad either with .005 RT in the KOTT Finals. Swapped tires, drove home, then a little Victory burnout in front of the house before putting it up, lol.    |

But with a flame job. Something like that, I guess, lol Thanks guys. 1/8 mile. Ran 7.8x yesterday. Just a super simple and basic 350/TH400/9” with 3.90’s & ladder bars. Built it ten years ago and have been enjoying it every weekend since.  |

My wife and I were enjoying some drinks beside the fire pit last night while listening to the sound of engines on the strip.
I live about a mile and a half north of BHDS. I used to get ou there regularly but I haven't been there in a few years. A friend's daughter made her first passes this year and if she sticks with it, I'll definitely be out there to support her. I've become more of a dirt oval fan. Mrs. dekeshooter and I spend a lot of time at Gas City and Kokomo Speedways watching sprints, modifiers and stocks. |

Congrats OP, that's stinkin' up the show right, and cutting a .005 light. Nice.
You know the driver's going to be looking for a raise now. Helps the negotiations when you're the car owner too...

In related news, the Nextdoor app was all afire this evening as the Karens took to the internets to complain how their House-O-Cats was sent into a tizzy this evening by the sound of oppressive white male dominance as it roared through the neighborhood in a sleepy town in IN. This in spite of several peaceful protests of BLM. Several saucers of milk were spilled as some cats raced to seek shelter under furniture, as other outside "rescue" cats abandoned their nightly free food tradition in favor of hiding in safe places under the hoods of random cars. It remains to be seen just how widespread the damage from this noise will affect the surrounding community. In other news this evening, Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead, as well as Ruth Bader Ginsberg, but updates on the health of both are still awaiting. |

Not only was the day amazing. The victory burn out before pulling into your driveway was about the coolest thing you could have done before putting it away for the night. Very sweet OP!
