Race day at Pacific Raceways. Race 7 and 8 for 2020. Some people thought we wouldn’t have any races, but here we are.

Eleven Super Street racers came to Pacific Raceways for the Saturday event. We got to sit for about 3 hours while the sky decided to fall down to the ground. Allen Macham, Dave Wakefield, Dustin Martin, Jay Schmid, Jess Dale, Justin Sibley, Lloyd Flatum, Michelle Lewis, Patrick Carroll, Todd Sims, and Frank Nelson Jr stayed dry until it was to time to qualify. This race was sponsored by Robert’s Floor Covering. One qualifying pass later, Dave Wakefield was #1 with a 10.916.

After some more moisture fell from the sky, we got started on round one.

Wakefield had the bye. Sibley then took out Dale with a better lite. Lewis forced Carrell to break out. Martin had a great .010 package to take out Flatum. Macham used a .011 light to force Sims to break out. Nelson won when Schmid had some trouble on the start line and was a little late.

Round two got started some time later. Martin beat Wakefield. Macham went 10.895 to Lewis’s 10.775 for the win. Nelson won when Sibley went red.

In the semi final round, Macham won when Martin went 10.895 and Nelson had the bye into the final

So, in the final round, it was Macham and Nelson. Double break out race. Macham had the better light and went 10.897 for the win. Congratulations to Allen Macham for the win. Thanks again to Robert’s Floor Covering for the sponsorship.

First round started before noon. Wakefield won when Schmid went red. Dale also won when B Carrell went red. Lewis took out Flatum with a .012 lite. Macham won when Sibley went too quick. P Carrell moved to round two when Nelson went red. Sims won when Jellum went red.

In round two, P Carrell had a slightly better light and stayed ahead of Sims for the win. Macham defeated Lewis. Dale overcame a worse light to win against Wakefield.

The semi final round had P Carrell racing Dale. Carrel went 10.900 for the win. Macham had the bye into the final.

Second final round of the weekend for Macham. Could he pull off a double win?  P Carrell had the better light .002 to .008. But Macham was closer to the index 10.866 to 10.841. Macham for the win and a double up for the weekend! Good job Allen Macham and thanks again to Handler’s Racing Association for the extra moolah.

Only four races left in the season.

Our next event is at Pacific Raceways on August 29 and 30.

Be there or be square.

Our next event is at Pacific Raceways on August 8 and 9.

Be there or be square.

I am so confused. We actually got two races done in 2020. Even tho mother nature wanted to pee on us a lot, we got it done.

We descended on Bremerton Raceway for race 3 and 4. Roberts Floor Covering was the Saturday race sponsor.

Dennis Boley, Jess Dale, Michelle Lewis, Patrick Carrell, Jeff Jackson, Brad Craig, Todd Sims, Justin Sibley, and Allen Macham came saw and raced after the rain slowed down.

After sitting around for about 6 hours we finally got one qualifying run in. Brad Craig went 6.900 to take the #1 spot. Snap-On Tools provided the awards once again.

Round one, around 6 pm. Sims forced Sibley to break out. Lewis and Carrell had a double break out affair, with Lewis winning. Dale forced Macham to break out. Craig used a holeshot to beat Monsaas, who did not buy into the association race. Boley went red against Jackson.

Round two started about an hour later. Dale had a better light and went 6.906 to defeat Jackson. Sims used a holeshot to force Lewis to break out. Craig had the bye.

Semifinals. Sims won when Craig broke out, and Dale had the bye.

Final round. About 9 pm. Sims wins when Dale goes red. A race in the books. Yeah. Then we had a protest in the Petitt pits and killed a bunch of food.

Sunday, Sunday, Sunday – rain, rain, rain. I do love this state.

Sunday race sponsor was the Dalrymple Family. Dennis Boley, Jess Dale, Michelle Lewis, Patrick Carrell, Jeff Jackson, Brad Craig, Todd Sims, Justin Sibley, Dave Wakefield, and Allen Macham paid their money to race.

Track got the drying it needed and off we go again. Due to the weather, qualifying was cancelled, and we did a random pair first round.

When first round came, Wakefield started off with a 6.909 to beat a racer who was not in our race. Craig used a holeshot to force Carrell to break out. Lewis lost due to breakage. Jackson forced Macham to break out. Sims beat Dale. Sibley won when another non association racer broke out. Boley could make first round.

On to round two. Jackson and Sims had identical .018 lights. Jackson went 6.921 to Sims 6.930 for the win. Sibley and his non association racer had identical 6.948 runs, but Sibley was better on the tree for the win. Craig had a holeshot on Wakefield and forced him to break out.

In the semi final round, Sibley used a .011 light to force Jackson to break out. Craig had the bye.

In the final round Sibley went .015 to Craig’s .019 and won when Craig broke out.

The next race will be July 4 and 5 at Bremerton Raceway.

The rest of the 2020 schedule has not yet changed.

Ok it is time to race, finally. Bremerton Raceway here we come.

Dave Wakefield, Jess Dale, Michelle Lewis, Todd Sims, and Allen Macham came saw and conquered.

Weather did not cooperate very well, but we finally got one qualifying run in. Jess Dale went 6.909 to take the #1 spot. Snap-On Tools provided the awards once again. Loftis Racing was the race sponsor.

Ok let’s go racing. Except Mother Nature said wait a minute, you have to contend with me. I think she was upset that we were having too much fun. Too much water and not enough temperature, so the track said that is enough. Money split five ways and first round loss points.

So, we will try again on Sunday

Dave Wakefield, Jess Dale, Michelle Lewis, Todd Sims, and Allen Macham stayed. Track got the drying it needed and off we go again. This time Roberts Floor Covering was the race sponsor. And, this time, Dave Wakefield ran a 6.902 to garner the #1 position.

First round but wait. There is more rain. This time running water on the track, not just sprinkles like before. Too much to handle, race was cancelled. Money split, first round loss points.

The next race will be June 20 and 21 at Bremerton Raceway. This is the rescheduled National Open. Gate fee is $100, Association fee is $60. Racing for a Wally and the money.

The rest of the 2020 schedule has not yet changed.

Ok, I guess I should write a short story and let everyone know the plans for 2020.

We had our 2020 Awards Banquet on January 25 at Pacific Raceways. It was catered by Two Busy to Cook and I think everyone got enough to eat. We had a crowd of over 50 people in attendance. Lots of racing bs was discussed, and everyone won a great door prize. A big thank you to the sponsors who donated the door prizes – Westbay Auto Parts, Snap-On Tools, Honest Performance, Designs Unlimited, K&N Filters, DG Machine, A-1 Performance, Bremerton Raceway, FBN Racing, and Spring Fling Million.

We had a general meeting at 5:00 pm.  We discussed the 2019 season, the upcoming season, current rules, and other things. We will be running 1/8 mile at Renegade in SC and SST. We got a couple of weekends back at Pacific Raceways and because we always seem to get rained out at Woodburn in the spring, I opted to go back to Pacific twice instead of Woodburn twice.

Congratulations to Todd Sims who won the SST Championship.

We have 14 races this year and 10 will count for the championship.

May 16/17 – Bremerton Raceway

May 24/25 – Renegade Raceway

June 6/7 – Bremerton Raceway

July 4/5 – Bremerton Raceway

Aug 8/9 – Pacific Raceway

Aug 29/30 – Pacific Raceway

Sept 19/20 – Woodburn Dragstrip

As of now, the plan is to start the season at Bremerton. That weekend is the NHRA National Open and because of that the gate price is $100 and the association price is $60. If you race the association, you will be racing for two checks and the wally. Also, remember at Bremerton Raceway, paid pit spots are reserved. Please do not park in a spot that someone has paid for.

Remember to

Let’s go racing!

Dennis Boley

A quick trip to Woodburn Dragstrip for the final two races of the year. The 2019 championship was on the on the line. Ten racers decided to race. Bill Gee, Dave Wakefield, Duane Moore, Gary Ericksen, Jess Dale, Lane Cavar, Michelle Lewis, Todd Sims, Allen Macham, and Hil Vandermeer were in attendance.

First qualifying session, Gee went 10.903 and nobody could get around that. So, Bill Gee was #1 and Snap-On Tools provided the awards once again. Roberts Floor Covering was the race sponsor.

Ok let’s go racing. Round one found Dale and Moore in a battle. Dale did not do to well on the tree and then went down and broke out, giving Moore the win. That opened the door for Sims. Lewis won when Macham had a bad light and could not run the number. Cavar lost to Wakefield on a double break out race, Sims got closer to the championship when Vandermeer turned on the red light and Gee forced Ericksen farther under on another double break out race.

Round two had Moore and Wakefield matched up. .003 to .009, but Wakefield went 10.895 to give the win to Moore. Sims pretty much sealed the deal when Lewis went red and Gee had the bye.

We got to the semi-final round and Gee advanced to the final when Sims lit the red eye. Moore had the single.

Then darkness fell and we could not finish the race. So, Gee and Moore split the money, and both got runner up points.

We had a spaghetti feed and awards ceremony in the Petitt pits. I decided to change the special award from Best Losing Package to Worst Losing Package. That went to Jess Dale.

Thanks to Roberts Floor Covering for the extra moolah and big shout out to all the Sponsors, especially Infinity Coach for the Series Sponsor.

By my rough calculations, Todd Sims moved ahead of Jess Dale for the 2019 Championship. Bill Gee got 3^rd and Tony Brothers 4^th.

Sunday’s race was rained out. Mother Nature does not like us sometimes. All racers in attendance will get 11 points.

The banquet will probably be January 26 in Tacoma. I will keep you guys and gals posted.

Pacific Raceways, Race 12, good weather, start your engines.

Ten Super Street racers for the event.

Dave Wakefield, Dustin Martin, Gary Ericksen, Jess Dale, Michelle Lewis, Patrick Carrell, Todd Sims, Don Turnbull, Lane Cavar, and Jeff Jackson entered the event.

In the first round of qualifying Jeff Jackson came out with a 10.907 and nobody could get around that, Jeff got the #1 award from Snap-On Tools. Archer Construction was the race sponsor.

Round one started with Jackson taking the bye. Then Dale beat up on Carrell in a double break out race. Sims forced Lewis to break out. Martin stayed ahead of Loftis (who was not entered). Turnbull used a .006 to Wakefield’s .008 to force Wakefield to break out. Sibley (who was not entered) beat Cavar. And Ericksen got around Craig (who was not entered).

Round two had Turnbull and Dale paired, with Turnbull coming out on top. Martin used a .008 light for force Sims to break out. And Jackson had a slightly better light than Ericksen and got the win.

Semi final round time. Martin used a better light, Jackson broke out. Turnbull went red.

In the final, Martin got the win.
