Well. didn't win the lottery yet.

Went to Milan Dragway Nostalgia Days on Sat and Sun. Lots of Gassers and front engine Dragsters along with old school Funny Cars. They also had a Classic Car Show both days.

They let some of the cars in the show do a fun-run so I jumped at the chance. I haven't been on the track in 33 years but man did it feel good. I got paired up with a 396 Caprice so I figured my 350 was gonna get spanked. I got him off the line (don't know how cuz I only have a 273 gear), he caught me but I just kept it in low till about 5000 and then shifted. When we went through the traps he was about 1 1/2 cars behind me.

My sled ran a 89.98 @ 15.419 and he ran 80.01 @ 15.987. Wasn't fast, but still had a blast until I saw how much rubber was on the 1/4 panel.........gotta get cleanin.
