I took the Mustang out to support this event put on by fellow racer Freddy Hoffman and had a good time. The weather was perfect with the cool fall temps and great air making for some fast passes as you can see below as these were both record runs.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>1st Qual: 11.578 @ 115.6 mph<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>2nd Qual: 11.568 @ 115.4 mph<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>I was feeling good going into 1st rd knowing all races were going to be extremely tight. I drew Gary Esnrud in his lovely yellow Mopar for a rematch from earlier in the year which too was a good race. I went .024 on the tree to his .011 and took the stripe by .016 but broke out by .008 running 11.562 on my 11.57 dial against his 11.25 on 11.23 dial. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>I was able to buy back into the race against other buyback competition and got a single due to odd cars. I had a .016 rt and ran 11.551 (new record) on a 11.55 dial so felt really good after this pass.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Moving into 2nd rd I had a .044 rt to my opponents .024 rt and ran 11.556 on my 11.54 dial to his 10.709 on a 10.70 dial so another good race but i came up short.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>We had a Gamblers race for both Electronics and Non- Electronic cars and I decided to give that a shot.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>I lost in the 1st rd running 11.584 on my 11.57 dial due to being tardy on the tree. My opponent had a .020 rt and ran 10.08 on his 10.03 dial.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Please see below winners from both races.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>SUPER PRO- Robert Strohm<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>R\/U &#8211; Scott Imbler<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>SP GAMBLER &#8211; Scott Imbler<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>R\/U &#8211; Randy Hentges<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>PRO &#8211; John Schwaller<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>R\/U &#8211; Brad Burton<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>PRO GAMBLER &#8211; Johnny Bumgarner<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>R\/U &#8211; Tom Wartinger<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>SPORTSMAN &#8211; Mark Biscay<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>R\/U &#8211; Brian Seaberg<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>I feel that Freddy did a fabulous job along with <em>Pacific Raceways<\/em>, too bad more people choose not to attend these big buck bracket races.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>This has been a great season for me being in Pro Bracket as the car ran wonderful.
