What does Nitti's car weigh on the starting line? Honestly, I am happy to stop chasing faster records for a while. Did he run 1/8th mile too?

Sounds like a great race weekend,
Lou

Can someone pretty please post the current record list as of Fall 2017? My latest D/U 1/4 mile and 1/8 mile records are not up there (12.75 @ 107.4 and 8.10 or so at 86-87). I would like to see them on the board again before they go down. :cry:

Thanks very much,

Lou

Lou, I fully understand about the weight thing. I lost a D record to a car that supposedly had 600 pounds of ballast thrown in the trunk. :shock:

I don't know how much weight Steve has out of that car, but real world weight on a '72 Duster would be 3250ish without driver.

It’s a full interior street car. Steve said he was going to take Seymour to lunch to give him his record paperwork. I’m sure they’ll talk.

Hey Lou,

Did you see the link with the current records in my previous post? Your newest records are there and there is also a history of past records too. I tried posting the link as a picture on the website but I couldn't get it to work. I basically just planned on posting links to the updated record list and doing a short write up when a new record was set. I wasn't planning on re-typing the list on the site like I used to do unless that is really wanted. I can try to figure out how to post a picture of the records list so that it shows up in the post instead of just a link. Let me know what your preference is and I will try to make it happen.

Here is the link to the current records. I will try to get it posted where it is visible in the actual post too.

Here is a test for a picture of the D class records. This can be done much easier than typing everything out and if the board crashes it is all backed up multiple places.

Lou, If this picture link works it should have all of your updated records on it. If it doesn't work let me know and I will try something else. Yellow highlighted lines are the current records.

Full interior and a bar that car can easily go 3450 w/driver. :D

Yes we can see it. You may need to reduce the size though?

Thanks again, Ryan. I can see your picture clearly. I am sorry I did not click on the link.

All the best and see you in 5 days!

Lou

I received the paper work for Lou Madsen's C/unlimited records and Ryan Covalt sent me copies of his time slips for a new A/G Et record. I still need the record form from Ryan and then I will direct him to post both records to his official file!

Did Steve Nitti figure out his record, or did he decide not to submit?

Steve Nitti was going to weigh his car as his times weren't quite fast enough to a C record but would work for D if his car is heavy enough.
