Day 4 - Byron Dragway, Byron IL


Another big drive last night (298.2 miles).

***edit***

Dave Schroeder continued his consistent mid-6s yesterday (*edit* actually a 6.7, thought he was slightly quicker than that) and leads Unlimited and overall. Bryant Goldstone's AMX struggled for traction on the first hit but he ended up sending a 6.78 pass to stay second.

Joe Barry minced the centre section of the 9" diff under his Ultimate Iron Chevy - luckily someone was carrying a spare that matched the spec and he remains in competition AFAIK. Mikael Borggren's ovloV continues to rip. So does the Milk Truck. Alex Taylor had a disappointing Day 3, finally getting back to the 7s towards the very end, but she's building for the future with that car (and also doesn't want to kill it before RMRW2.0).

***edit 2***

We're live...ish. Lots of buffering right now. Hopefully it's sortable and not just the track having bloody awful internet access.

***edit 3***

Bit better now. And Hot Rod have fixed the link to the current results. 41 cars now confirmed out.

Day 5 - US 131 Motorsports Park, Martin MI


291.7 miles back to US 131 and another pass. That's 'all' these guys need to finish Drag Week 2021. I make the drive between tracks 1125 miles and change...and these cars are running 8s, 7s, even 6s. Crazy.

And the thing is, there's some quick cars not even at the event this year with all the disruption to schedules from Covid. Bodes well for the future :)

Going live. With Schroeder making a slow (if you can call any kind of 7sec pass slow!) run yesterday the overall win is still genuinely up for grabs.
