Jared Richey Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Got back to the Track Friday night... Ran a best of 7.56@90 MPH through the mufflers. 60 foots were in the 1.6s Best reaction was a .010 When I was in the staging lanes, a 2000ish camaro and a 80s Malibu raced for some $$$. Well they didn't stop racing at the 1/8 mile, the Malibu lost control past where the old 1/4 mile used to be in the 1970s, hit the Camaro in the door (guy drove Camaro down there) totaling both cars, Malibu also hit a tree. The Camaro did not have a roll bar, I don't see how either of them didn't get thereselves killed. The Camaro was hit so hard in the A pillar/door it busted the dash! The announcer came over the P-A system and said what had happened, everyone that seen the race said you could hear the Camaro still grabbing gears well past the scoreboards which is about a 1/16 mile past the finish line.

Mike 57 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Good to see you back at the track! Those two guys were nuts. There was a guy at the track yesterday with a new Camaro, it had lots of motor work done by Ron Hutter performance. He ripped off a 10.13 pass and they told him to park it.

502ci Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 How long did they shut the track down? It's bad enough when a guys car breaks and dumps fluid on the track but when somebody is screwing around like that and then gets the track shut down for an extended period of time they should have to reimburse all the other people. I imagine the guy in the Camaro is gonna try and tell his insurance he wrecked it on the highway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbreese Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Great Job Jared!!! Did you make any changes to the car since your last trip? It is a wonder the other racers there didn't run those two knuckle heads off with torches and pitchforks after that stunt. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyDavey Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 nice run Jared...glad you got back to the track.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Richey Posted September 27, 2010 Author Share Posted September 27, 2010 This was really the first good trip back this year, besides that fiasco about a month ago blowing a header gasket and driving back pouring down rain. I've made 0 changes to the car itself, maybe its time to get in touch with Patrick and see if they are any changes I can make to help out with the carb. Although it seems to run flawless. You can really see and feel that suspension work coming off the line for sure. The track was shut down for about 45 minutes atleast!!

502ci Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Jared, it appears like you do not have a helmet on in the picture...then again it looks like you are bald headed too so maybe it's an illusion. Soooo what is it...no helmet and you shaved your head... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike 57 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Nice picture Jared. The Car looks good. As Bill said, It looks like you do not have a helmet on. That can't be true can it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Richey Posted September 30, 2010 Author Share Posted September 30, 2010 Yeah I have on a helmet, just not a full face one. I got the kind like Dale Earnhardt wore. And I still got hair on my head, not much just like at the East Meet. I still look the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
