Welcome to the results page. After each race, we will have the results of each race, the "who made it and who didn't"! Who struggled and who was on top!
After a beautiful warm afternoon without rain (which has been a regular event for the SWSC there), timed trial qualifying runs began for the SWSC faithful around 6:00 pm. The legendary Dr. Hook (in Texas) had promised the SWSC a treacherously sticky track and he delivered , in spades! Buck Woolen (Jr. and Sr.) lined up to be first down the fresh Desert Thunder surface and at least half of the first pair made a great pass. Buck Sr ran a respectable 4.8163/144.60, but Buck Jr. lifted the front wheels slightly immediately before crunching the transmission into oblivion. Further progress under power was unlikely, and the crew had to push him back to the staging lanes to be recovered by the team. Next up was Clay Cunningham, driver of the Wayne’s World dragster. He faced the “Banzai” entry of Andy Mears, Lubbock., TX. Clays r.t. of .011 and e.t of 4.7054/151.06 overshadowed Andys nice sub-index 4.6579/151.52. Brittny Blakely fired her big block to meet Jacob Penner (427 Chev). Jacob made a great 4.6878/151.72 vs. Brittnys officially ignored 4.5354/154.06. Sue Stringer (Alamogordo, NM) next met Gary Smith (500 in. Hemi) and Garys 4.8090/142.90 outpaced Sues 4.8258/134.85. Gary Hill (525 Max Wedge) next prepared to run Don David (Odessa, TX). Dons 4.6936/150.50 outran Garys 4.7709/146.01. Finally Bill Norman and The Fabulous Fat Boys met Lyle Byrum (El Paso). Bill eeked out a 4.8733/145.82 to Lyles bogus 5.1536/146.91. (Do I have the right numbers for that Pass? I didn’t think so).
The Davidson Racing Fuels 30-gal drum of methanol goes to the winner, Gary Hill of Truth or Consequences, NM.
