Thought I would share a few vids from this weekend.
This past Saturday was the first 275 D/R event at Cecil County Dragway. I haven't been on the boards lately but figured I would share a few video's from the event. The two I am posting were from first round of qualifying where I was able to get #1 qualifyer, and later win the event.
If you would like to see more video's, go to youtube and search Don Barnett or Donnie Barnett.

Thanks for looking,

Top links not working. Said "The URL contained a malformed video ID".
Bottom video works. Cool video.

I'm not sure I like the idea of having to reach behind you to find the chute handle.

Re: Thought I would share a few vids from this weekend.
Thanks for the positive words.
Cecil has gone to a new traction compound from VP, when walking the track it appears to be well prepped, and have good tack. I do believe that this compound is good in colder weather, but is a mess when the track gets a little heat in it. We backed the power down after the first qualifier and were having issues with hooking more and more as heat got into the track. Cars that we know NEVER have problems with traction were having issues.
Hopefully they will change some things before the Street Car Shootout! Stop by and introduce yourself, there is always refreshments in our pits, and we can all use contacts at the track!
