yes its a celica!
Mike, not saying I have the answer for anything, but for this particular run, what I suspect is that the bulbs on the board lit, and shouldn't have, to turn the 5 into a 9.What is going on here?
Look at this:
The first image is from a video that someone took of my third pass.
The second image is the timeslip for that pass.
Anyone see anything wrong here?
Look at the MPH!!!
All day it looked to me like my MPH was way off vs my E.T.
Ummm, yeah....they got a little problem there....
For me, everything was accurate, ET, mph. Felt so good to be back at the track. Great turnout, awesome variety of some fast cars, in both street and slick lanes. I hope the weather starts cooperating... I need some more 1/4 mile therapy. :D
BTW, would love to see all pics and vids from yesterday.
Good day yesterday, it was nice weather and I needed to smell some race gas and rubber.
Nice meeting some of you guys like Troy and Mike and seeing you too Bob.
Congrats to Chad (Black Vert) on the new personal best, strong factory shortblock you got there :)

All in all a good time, just glad the weather held out for a track day finally. Was nice meeting some of the guys from the board, now get off your asses and your cars going

I noticed a guy there taking photos, is this "Truby"?
Does anyone know if he has a site, or does he sell the photos? I am hoping he got a good shot of my car with the front wheels up off the ground.
I was getting on Chad at the track about getting a anti-rollbar. Especially to help save the car!
Yes, Truby is the guy taking photos at PRP. They will post them on PRP's site but it usually take awhile. If you find one you like you can contact Truby and Im sure he would set something up it you wanted one.
good job man props to you!
I'm not sure what happened to the online versions. It's disappointing, especially the fun stuff, like GGG, bracket finals, etc. I am pretty sure Bill keeps all his shots stored though. I don't know if this version of the PRP site will include the pics from Bill or not.
BTW, Bill is not paid by the track. He does this for the love of drag racing. He has an awesome collection from PID and Keystone that he's taken over the years, that gets displayed at the Nostalgia race in September. I believe a number of those shots are also available on the PID website now too.
Just wanted to throw this out there, don't think there were timing system issues, especially in the left lane. Here are my 3 runs, all left lane passes.
60'- 1.5797 1.5774 1.5791
330'- 4.5788 4.5791 4.5804
1/8th- 7.1317 7.1318 7.1332
MPH- 96.17 96.17 96.15
1000'- 9.3498 9.3537 9.3535
1/4- 11.2497 11.2581 11.2649 (11.2579 after run completion
MPH 116.85 116.55 113.72 (on the brakes)
Got a little sloppy in the consistency department after the 1000'....
This site won't let me space those #'s out so that they are easier to read.
