Damn...that puts my off-season hobbies to shame. Did you win either heat? Looks like you did the second one. What kind of camera? Helmet mounted GoPro?

Nova runs on methanol. It costs about 3.50 per gallon and can make a quarter mile run on about a gallon. The dragster not so good. It runs 116 octane racing gas that costs a little over 12 dollars per gallon and burns about 3 quarters of a gallon per run.

I do some flatwater kayaking, do some vegetable, and flower gardening, raise backyard chickens, and take telescopic photos of sunspots. None are real "chick magnets".

Is it typical to keep looking to the side to see how you are doing? Would it not be faster to just look straight forward the whole time to focus on your line and shifting?

I should learn a lot from this off-season chronicle...never really followed anyone in drag before.

Hey, it's off-season, I need some entertainment.

Went over to Boo Williams today--MEAC on one side, NBDL on the other side. Good to see some guys I know trying to get into the DL. bbtaylor60 and eroe, who used to frequent this board, were observers for the DL camp.

JB Caldwell, who used work in the SEC, gave up supervising his small school conferences in Florida and is now working for the NBA officiating department.

How can you resist not asking me to post some photos of Betty, and Veronica, by backyard chickens? I'm sure that those photos would be just as exciting as drag racing videos.

(jeremy341a: Keep posting your cool videos. I hope that moderators continue give you a break throughout the offseason.)
