Learning to race
I have created this blog so my family could follow my journey learning to drag race. I started my journey in April and attended Frank Hawleys Drag School. It was an amazing and alot harder then I anticipated. My husband used to race and he built my car. It is an altered/funny car. It is a 1942 Fiat with a Chevy big block engine. The name of my car is MisBehavin. On Friday August 26th we went to Rocky Mountain Raceway to make first runs in our car. We had a couple minor driver errors, thats me, and a problem with the fuel being too rich. It was a very productive day and we fixed our problems. We went back out Saterday ready to try again. Saterday was also a success I made it all the way down the track without the car shutting down. Very happy moment. On August 31 I had to have surgery on my right hand so depending on what the doctor says this may be the end of our race season. I will keep you updated.
