Northeast Tuner Race at Atco today. Roan got his normal two passes before getting the boot, but still managed a nice 6.40@115mph in the 1/8 on his first pass.
His second pass he missed a shift and went 10.50. The car has a 9.50 in it without question. Shed a 100lbs or so and a 9.30 is in the car! This is an amazing feat for a full weight street car.
Len Bacon is in the finals right now about to take the win in the 10.5 index class. He has been taking down Hondas all day! Here are some pic's from today.











LETS NOT FORGET THE BIG RACE OF THE SUMMER.........

 

What gets Roan the boot?

 

No cage

 

It was a great day, Great to see everyone and great to make clean consistent passes all the while eating up the Honda boys in the 10.50 class
Got to send a more than special thanks to Ernie, I mean he drove 180 miles out of the way to pick up my girdle, woke up at the *** crack of dawn to meet me at my house and helped me button her all up. However he is no longer allowed to park his truck next to mine
As always I got to thank Jim from JPR, helping me getting my diff rebuilt, and listening to all my OCD’ness
I ran my best ever 10.71 and was cutting consistent 1.50x’s all day
Trophy in hand and a check dated for Tuesday make it all worth while

Now to get ready for ISLAND on June 12th!!!
Then SUMMERSLAM, hope the curse of the flyers doesn’t continue

 

Congrats on the win and having rotary friends like Ernie is what it's all about. Glad you guys had a great day and really happy that you gave it to those Honda crybabies.

 

The cars are looking great guys, those are some awesome ET's and trap speeds

Lenny, I'll pay you if you remove those frog eye lights from your car

 

LMAO i hate em 2, but i havent found a way to mount the stock cover w/o a basket (aka) weight

"if you build it i will run it" lol

 

You could probably shave a couple thousands from the drag created from those frog eye's.

 

Congrats guys! Len glad to see the breaking has ceased! Roan, I gotta give it to you, you really are determined. Ernie congrats on the flyer, car looks great.

 

Should call them OILBabies, we stood arround for like 4hrs between 3 full track oil downs. It was nuts, of course that was during the time my wife showed up, no sooner did she leave the Quals started and within a hr it was all over lol,

 

Good job Roan... Time to put a cage in it with the added bling factor I told you about

Full size prints is available for sale if anyone is interested...

 

Congrats EVERYBODY!

 

Nice runs guys, nice seeing the Honda boys being taught some lessons on the strip
