Drag Racing Results and Standings

September 11, 2010 Drag Racing at Las Vegas Motor Speedway

by Cathy Wilson

The evening started off warm, 98 degrees, but cooled off nicely as the sun went down. We had 10 racers and a handful of folks who came out to watch. Tom Hill shot some video. As the track cooled off, lots of racers had trouble hooking up. I saw quite a few instances of drivers getting squirrelly and getting out of it to avoid any problems (and not just from our club). Thank you to everyone who had the presence of mind to realize that if you have that much trouble hooking up, your run is going to be too slow anyway, so no sense in fighting it to try to stay in it!

The 2nd round bye run went to Mike Kerro and Richard Wood earned the bye for the 3rd round.

Here are the results. Congratulations to all the winners!
