Makes me wonder how you guys would have done with 8"/4 drift. Might have been the magic number again! We actually wanted 5" knowing you used 8" last year. Oh well.Shawn Stebleton wrote: My son came in 4th. He said "Are you kidding???" He is a good sport about it. We figured out that if his third run (lane 1) had been halfway between the times of his first two runs, he would have won 1st, all other things being equal. That is what an alignment that is just off a bit can do. Either that, or the car didn't have enough drift to the rail. It was about 3 inches in 3-1/2 feet. Last year was 8 inches and he won 1st place. That track is rougher than our old wood track.
And yes the competition at districts was very high. At pack we blew the doors off everybody by at least a car length most heats....but at the mall a lot of cars had the right stuff. Wonder how many of those dads were lurking around in DT? lol
Thanks for the district race history as well...all the way back to 2007! I didn't realize you been in the PWD game that long. I really enjoyed the pics of the old wooden track. So if they switched to a different track in 2012, then all we can say is L DFW=2 R DFW=1 for past 3 seasons.....not much go on haha. But at least we added some history on DT for the future Bushy Run contenders to ponder.
