CrazyDavey Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 here's a short vid of Tim and Red each making a run at The Dalles. As mentioned in some other posts it was a temporary setup on a runway. I'm not quite sure how the measured out the 1/8th mile but I think it had something to do with the "new math" they tried to teach my kid in the 4th grade!!! Anyway, it wasn't an 1/8th mile, more like a 3/16th mile or something. The times based on Red's car were close to a second off (slow) and the times would vary quite a bit from run to run but it was fun to light up the tires and nothing broke so that's a good day in racing... Tim has a really strong car that would haul the mail under good track conditions, he was just driving it off the line. Red mysteriously picked up a half second on this run and broke out...uh..yeah....that happens all the time, spinning the tires and getting out of it twice.......
