CFR Re-Opened!!
Sun Jul 27, 2008
Cedar Falls raceway reopened July 26th with the Night Of Fire event...Packed stands and standing room only!!!
Nostalgia Top Fuel and Funny Car...Jack Wyatt's Nitro Funny Car, Jet Cars, and Arnie 'The Farmer' Beswick made for one heck of a show!
The Flashback has had better outings though as we redlit in round one...we bought back in and won a round before a bad reaction time took us out in round three to end our day.
The car's running good, the driver needs a good tune up now!

SemiFinals Our First Weekend Out.
Wed May 28, 2008
Well, we didn't pick up the win but Iwas mildly happy with the semi-final finish.
We treed the competition the first three rounds and then lit the red-lite in the semi's.
Car was running in the 10 teen to 10 twenty range in some very bad air so that's encouraging...and the new brakes worked flawlessly!
Can't wait til next weekend!!
