Default A Day in Rising Sun, MD - Cecil County Dragway - 3/31/07 (56k warning)

I posted most of these on MySpace, but I'm sure this gets more exposure.

__________________________________________________ _____________________________

Quickel and I ready to go. (Yes, I'm aware of the dumb stare on my face. )


The CRX of Death.


...And "El Loco," the $400 turbo GSR-wonder.


We took 74 pretty much the whole way...




Schmuck ("ef4dr" on here) driving Brandon's ("dc5tegk20" on here) RSX-S.





Random, beautiful dam on the way there.





At Cecil County Dragway, finally...








My dad, prepping the CRX.









My first run, which SUCKED.


Bad-*** drag car.


Monster turbo, Ford-powered RX-7.



Slow car. (Just kidding, B!)







Little dune-buggy went 12.8 on BFG drag radials!



"Joo want to get LOCO wit' essay?!" - Went 11.57 @ 118mph, stock block, stock head, GSR with cheap-*** XS Power turbo on STOCK SUSPENSION. (Note, the FWD wheelie. )




My father and Brandon doing... Something. :shock:



After Danny's first pass in the hatch, we found the wastegate to be hitting the hood latch, causing the hood to open on the 1st to 2nd shift! Here's how we fixed that...



CRX, running it's best of 12.75 @ 107mph.







Re-grouping at the gas station.




The hill that Danny proceeded to lay two 300-ft.-long, thick, black patches laying into the throttle in third gear at 60mph.




Almost home, on 83.


Thanks for looking!

- Derek

No, actually.

They never flagged him for not wearing a helmet, and I believe the cutoff for the cage was 11.49.

Tech was a joke there on Saturday.

Yeah, they didn't say one thing to Danny (turbo hatch) all day, but made a BIG deal about the damn Cayman S, which only ran 13.9 @ 102mph.

Hahaha, yes, technically.

Like I said, tech was very lenient. VERY.
