I just got back from dinner after the Flashlight drags. I did well at 8-2. I lost twice to a very well put together mid eighties Camaro with a 408 and a 150 shot of NOS. I lost to him by a car and a half the first time and a car length the second time. The highlight of my day was when I raced and beat a replica 427 Cobra. It had a Roush 427 small block in it and was very nice. I beat him by a couple car length's. I also beat the following cars:
T-bucket with a smallblock
1973 Nova 350
Dodge truck with a hemi
1965 427 Cobra replica
Lingenfelter supercharged corvette (C5), very close race, I got him by a fender.
2003 Cobra, supercharged
1964 Nova 355
SVT Cobra (not supercharged)
My brother took pictures and I'll post them as soon as I get them. I did not use my nitrous as I had a problem with the fuses on the way out. I lost the electric fan and had to sit for awhile. I fixed it and ran the rest of the day with no problems, it runs cool sitting in traffic (180-190) and drops down to about 130 when moving.
I love this type of racing as you never know what you'll run against. There were about 250- 300 cars there. It was a blast!!
Looking forward to next year!!
