Well I took the Nova to the strip!
Drove it there!

Well, I am older! And I still got it.

Car ran somewhat consistent. Never did get it to hook good.
Got some 7.50's out of it.

I still got that good old reaction time!
Pulled .021 first pass.
Stayed in the .020-.030 and when the track got better and car was hooking better got some 008-006 then a -.007 red light.

But I had fun!

Felt good, and all those old smells of racing fuel, VHT, and rubber!

WOW! Did not know how much I missed it!

got a lot of work to do to get the car working better and consistent.

I took the video camera and never set it up.
Just involved in what I was doing!
