    Discovered something bad about Dragweek tonight

    Decided to go to the track tonight, because I knew we would have some great air. Track went hot at 6:00, I made two passes by 6:30, had an all time best 10.27@ 127.87 mph. Walked around and watched for another hour, got in my car and drove home. It felt good to make some passes, but after doing DW it was kinda boring, compared to being surounded by so many like minded people, cool cars and great stories. So I guess what I'm saying is after doing DW, it's hard to get excited about anything else.

            "So I guess what I'm saying is after doing DW, it's hard to get excited about anything else."

            I didn't understand why I had no interest in going to a TnT session after I got back. Thought maybe I was losing my interest in drag racing, but now I understand! Thanks Dr. Jason (a.k.a. "The DW Psychologist").

                ^^^ Yes!

                I have given up the hope of getting the falcon to the strip before the season closed this year - hope to have it under it's own power ready to TnT by spring, lots of other things to catch up on.
                There's always something new to learn.
