Well,
what can I say, Ron is on fire this season setting yet
more records and beating his old 1/8 mile and 1/4 mile
records which he set at Mission Raceway on September
19, 2004.
After
a miserable morning of rain on Saturday the sky began
to clear over Mission Raceway and the CMDRA event was
able to proceed. Once Ron and the team were able to
analyze the track and the weather after the heavy rain,
the bike was dialed in for the second round of qualifying.
In an amazing pass Ron beat his Sept. 04 record with
a 6.657 @ 212.76mph (the old record was 6.679). This
pass clearly left Ron secured in the number 1 qualifying
position for Sunday.
On
Sunday Ron lived up to the Fast Lane name and started
off the first round of elimination by beating the previous
days record breaking numbers with a 6.62 @ 213mph. Just
when the crown figured they had seen all the record
breaking action for one weekend, guess what happened,
Ron broke the previous two records and firmly set the
new track ET's as well as the new CMDRA 1/8 and 1/4
mile records! In a crowd pleasing, strait as an arrow,
center of the track pass, Ron ran the 1/8 mile @ 4.312,
and the 1/4 mile @ 6.583 @ 213.47mph. All in all it
was an amazing weekend for Ron and those of us on the
Fast Lane team.
