Very Nice!!! My day was good too

27.8 200 m Bet time this year season, and the season is young. Last year at this time she was only running 29's and finished with a best of 27.02.

We are pulling for low 26's this year the big meets are coming soon!

Day started out with rain cleared up a bit then rain for the second half of the meet.

See did this in pouring rain.

Oh I guess I'm talking about the worng track times. LOL I spent the day coach a track meet. Daughter was the runner.!!!'

I guess it's as exciting as running fast time with cars!! :Beer

The last 3 rounds were in the 'Gambler's Race'. A field of 40 cars at $20 each for about $800. :eek2:

I ran the 3rd round of the Gambler's Race with a 14.5 dial-in. I got a 0.096 light and crossed the line at 14.519. The winner dialed a 13.62 and ran a 13.682 with a 0.030 RT. The margin of victory was 0.0237 seconds with me on the short end of the stick. *owned*

oh yeah... :D

All I can say is... hey, I made it to the third round - a cut of 10 of a field of 40. Nothing to be ashamed of. NOBODY ran better in the remaining races, everyone did their best times on the previous rounds. :steering
