THE TIME SLIP
Volume 1 – Issue 6
For the week of May 17 – 23, 2021
Warm weather and lots of racing this week
by Neil Van Zile
The weather threatened to end racing early a few times over the weekend, but in the end all the tracks were able to complete all of their eliminators.
Lebanon Valley Dragway ran 12 classes of eliminators over three days. Brackets points races were run on Wednesday night and Sunday, along with the three classes of No Time, No Rules on Saturday.
New England Dragway had some breaks in the action on Saturday, with an oildown that took a while to clean up and a couple of short rain events. Even so, they were able to finish seven eliminators. On Sunday they ran THIRTEEN classes to completion.
New Oxford Dragway had six winners in their Friday night bracket points program, including Jr. Dragsters.
Winterport Dragway hosted a No Time race on Saturday night, but rain forced the cancelation of Sunday’s bracket points race.
Later in the week we will have a new edition of The Data Logger and talk about the successes of a new generation of drag racers this past weekend, and more Willards in the Winner’s Circle. But special mention has to be made of Ron Childs incredible FOUR wins at two tracks over the course of three days. It was a stellar performance by a racer who brings his bright red Vega to the track on an open trailer.
Here are some links for photos from all of the racing last weekend.
