« Previous EntriesSeason Ends with a Whimper
Wednesday, September 30th, 2009Getting from where we are all the way to Medford, Oregon for the NHRA Division 6 season ending race is no easy task for us. It’s over an 8 hour drive from Woodinville, even longer when towing the trailer. And getting there from Pullman (where Em is these days) is even worse. The drive would [...]
Semi-Final Finish
Wednesday, August 19th, 2009Bremerton Raceway is always a favorite track of ours and that’s where we were this weekend. Since we don’t spend much time at Pacific Raceways, we consider Bremerton Raceway our home track. The people are friendly, the atmosphere is laid back, and most of all it’s familiar. The only thing better is a Pacific Northwest [...]
If It’s Not One Thing…
Thursday, August 6th, 2009There’s an old saying: there are million ways to lose in drag racing. It’s been true for us, we’re finding all kinds of ways to lose, at least in round two.
We’ve had a remarkable run of success, especially for a team that’s been racing for less than two years. We haven’t lost in round one [...]
First Round Wins and First Time Experiences
Saturday, August 1st, 2009The past couple of weekends have been great experiences for me and Chris. We have had 9 races so far this season and have won a round in 7 of those races. Also, we haven’t lost in first round in 7 races in a row! Not only have we had luck on the line, but [...]
Summer Adventures
Thursday, July 16th, 2009This summer has been by far the busiest summer the Williams family has had in a long time. It’s been quite an adventure keeping up with everything. We go from one trip to another with barely a chance to sleep. I, personally, have been living out a suitcase since May. I have makeshift homes all [...]
Number One Qualifier!
Tuesday, June 9th, 2009That’s right, you heard me - We got number one qualifier this past weekend! This past weekend was by far the best weekend we have had racing our Super Comp dragster and Chris and I are sitting on cloud nine.
The weekend started off great with afternoon racing call. Spokane County Raceways decided to start [...]
Of Friends and Fixes
Monday, June 1st, 2009Em updated you on how we finally got our Boise bugs nailed and ran better in Bremerton (but not quite well enough to get a win light…). I thought I’d tell you how we did that. It’s really a testament to what good friends we have, and I love to talk about them.
We had several [...]
PNSCA in Bremerton
Saturday, May 30th, 2009Fun fact: In the summer I like to pretend like I don’t have any responsibilities. It’s not a great excuse for my lacking of blogging, but it’s all I’ve got. But never fear - EMDUB is here!
Two weeks ago Chris and I packed up and headed to Bremerton with high hopes for our first Pacific [...]
Speedbumps in Boise
Tuesday, May 12th, 2009Our first race of the year was in Boise, a few weeks ago, on the first weekend in May. I apologize for the long delay in posting, but things have been a little crazy.
Not only was Boise our first race of the year, it was our first entry into a major NHRA Divisional race, [...]
While We’re At It
Sunday, March 1st, 2009I promised an update on the engine, and you’ll get one. On Tuesday we’re taking it to the dyno, and you’ll get a full report and pictures after that. But I’ve been working hard on the car, and Em’s all over me for a blog update in the mean time, so here you go.
Perhaps the [...]
