    Racing can't be over already can it?.....no snow here yet but I think we'll call it a year.

    We made good progress this year; 2nd full season with the car. Last event was our best ever et/mph/60ft - 15.30 @ 86mph, 2.02 60ft. Finished tied for 8th in our Stock/Super Stock combo series;(out of 24 entries).
    We're very close to the IHRA V/SA National Record of 15.27 @ 85.04 and the Maverick still weighs 100lb more than the class requirement.

    Next year we will be mean & lean as well as having a 2.75 1st gear in the C4. On a good air day, a 14 second pass should be in the cards.

    Congrats to everyone across the board for their accomplishments this year and Happy Thanksgiving!!:Handshake
