Default Hillbilly racing

Friday evening Rob wanted to go to Rogersville for a little TNT (1/4 mile), so I tagged along with the Deuce and my crew chief, Drew. Huge crowd, especially for a TNT. I was able to run a couple of 10.50s, Rob was having trouble hooking, but was able to put a couple of passes on the new motor, with decent ETs and MPHs.

Drew is a BIG fan of the TV show Street Outlaws, so he was pumped to meet one of the stars, Daddy Dave Comstock (#1 in the standings) and seen him make a couple of passes.

Ben and I like the show as well, a bit much on the 'drama' side - but that's reality TV! My concern is that they are glorifying street racing, something that we all discourage.....

They killed the clocks for his passes, but I'm gonna guess the truck runs high-7s/low-8s in full boogie mode [from what I saw]...
