Looks like its a loooooooong drive up from Portland!

That is a long drvie. Please stop by. I drive an all black '82 GT. I'll probably have my head under the hood as I will be testing and tuning in practice.

wow! So far there's been a car that barrel rolled off the track and over the fence and now a guy testing his transbrake in the pits wrecked his glass bodied car into 2 parked cars...and we haven't even STARTED elimination yet! guess it was worth the trip!

Yep sure is a long drive, we stoped in there before the pinks filming. When we were there a guy in a new T/A lost a T-top and shartered on the track. Anyone know what it cost to be a spectator? Maybe i'll swing up there tomorrow? peace

Spectators were $10 today
This was the only pic I took, the guy with the Volvoish altered looking rod left before I could take a pic. They loaded it on his trailer with a cat. This is the car that ran into a car driving by when he was testing his transbrake. Interesting too is that he hit so hard it swung the back end of his car over far enough to whack his own truck too.

I was there and missed that event completely. I was dealing with my own issues, but they pale in comparison to the trans bake affray. I did hear about the barrel roll. These kinds of events are increasingly common at Bremerton: too much boost, too much nitrous...
Do one of you guys (from Portland area) drive the boosted, 8 second, Mustang?

Yes. Two pistons broken in the same way, just like last time. The thinnest part of the piston-top comes apart on the edge of the valve eyelit right next to the cylinder wall, from the ring up. I thought it was an aberration last time. Looks like it is more the rule than the exception, at least for me. No cylinder head damage but a scratch on one cylinder wall. I don't know if it will hone. I wonder if the machinest is not allowing enough piston clearance. All the damage was on the passenger side. The drivers side looks great, just like before. This will be my last purchase of KB hyper pistons.

Lucky no one was killed on that one. I think about such things happening as I walk through the pits where these guys are revving their cars to who knows what high rpm, wheels spinning on jack stands or just a jack. Not a good place for kids...

Is that the 80's Camaro with two huge dryers coming out of the hood?
By 4, I was home watching football. Sorry I missed you. I was focused on my car issues most of the afternoon. Now I have a winter project.

I remember being in line at PIR for a Friday night race and a kid has his fathers blown challenger out and was in line to get in. He waited for about 5 minutes before he moved and did a big wheelstand in the car.
He got scared and dropped the front and was going too fast and smashed into the rear of the person in front of him. I just don't get some people sometimes as there is plenty of time and space to do these sorts of things at dragstrips in the proper places.
