i DRAG RACED TODAY
Today I got to drag race at San Antonio Raceway. I didnt do a burn out or anything like that, I just went down the track. Rich Halverson helped me and I had a blast. I hate those timing lights I will have to get the hang of that stuff for sure I love going down the track. I won my first race but only because the guy got to complacent toward the end of the 1/4 mile and I smoked him. The begining sucks because of that stupid light thingie. Here is a picture of my time slip. http://picasaweb.google.com/brendasue555/TimeSlip#5396691743576305138
if some one coulp put the picture here it would be better. Assist?
Anyway you can tell by my reaction time that someone had to tap me on the shoulder and tell me to go, lol I had a lot of fun and appreciatte all the help from Rich! Now he is a good racer and fun to watch!
