It was a ball, how many 70-year-old guys can say they took a 1959 dragster down the track for the first time in almost 60 years .
Vic, Royce, Jim, Tom and my daughter helped out a lot all weekend. We're doing some fine-tuning on it right now, leaning the main Jet, installing a high-speed lean out , fixing the steering and some other little tricks to make it go faster. Should be able to go low 12s High 11s next time out.

As a 74 year old car nut I can certainly identify with that.
