The Bad Boy team was out for the first time in many years! It was a great day - best of all seeing all of our friends at the track! We worked out some 1st time bugs on the 1st run (tires brand new - so we chattered the start and about 150' out but still ran a 7.8 at 146mph) 2nd run after dark on a cold track was 6.6 seconds at 194mph. It felt awesome and went straight.
Special thanks to all that came out to support and help us! Thank you to East Coast Fuelers for setting our group up for The Night of Fire at Lebanon Valley Dragway. Our sponsor Quality Machine Shop of New Paltz was amazing in getting us back up and running and for being there to support us! Thank you to all the crew and other teams that helped us get "back in the groove" and set up, Anthony, Donny, Mike, Jack, and my wife, Raffaela did a great job. Without my crew I couldn't do what I love!
We had a great day with East Coast Fuelers in front of a packed house at Atco Dragway in the Night of Fire Show last night. We dusted off the Bad Boy Dragster after almost 2 years and out of the box ran a beautiful 6.54 second pass at 208 mph! We had fun putting kids (and some adults) in the seat, talking to drag racing fans, and visiting with friends and family! Thank you to Quality Machine Shop for the support and muscle behind the runs and Powermist Racing Fuels Group for the fuel that makes us go!
