Morley 2

OK, I will try to catch up here. Morley, the big Morley. It went great, weather was great, sunny and hot. They had 2 classes for us #5800 and #6500. Lots of trucks in both classes, 15 or 16. Track wanted to bounce for everyone including Lil Whitey. #5800 came out of hole wanting to bounce a bit, we feathered it at about 80', that didn't seem to clear it up, feathered it a couple more times at about 125' then is seemed to settle in. Nearpass sled is awesome, Dan you do a grea job!!!! We pulled a 318', we were 4th or 5th hook in class and farthest up until then was about 293'. We knew there were a lot of good trucks coming yet. We did end up holding them off, 2nd place ended up around 309'. In #6500 class we were the 2nd hook pulled a 289.9'. Harold L was the first hook and had turned it down, so he was coming back as last puller. All the other trucks hooked and we were still holding down the 1st place spot by 5'-6'.....................but then that slippery snake Harold hooked for his second hook and pulled at 290.2'. We ended up 2nd by about 3". Great pull Harold, it was a great looking run!!!!!!!!! Ed A broke rear right axle at about 220' in the #5800 class. We pulled out the broken one and tried to find a truck we could borrow on from but not many trucks use the Dana 70's anymore. We ended up not finding an axle for him. We are really bummed for Ed, he has had a really touch year for breakage. Hang in there Ed, you have a really nice truck and it will win a lot of pulls once you get the bugs out of it!!!!!!
