    Default 2021 NMRA Atlanta pictures

    I finally made it to an NMRA race. 5 years I've tried but either didn't have the Capri ready or it was broken. This year is the last at Atlanta Dragway since they sold it and it will be a condo complex next year.

    I ran True Street and had a lot of fun. 5 passes, best was a 13.95 at 103. On that pass no spin, got into boost quickly and was very fun. The others I either spun or bogged.

    Here are all the 4-eyes from the True Street cruise.

    Oh, and I had Evan Smith do a double take when I was waiting to be called for the burn out, then he took a ton of pictures. I also had a Race Pages reporter hunt me down in the pits and do an interview. That was fun.

    Looked like a lot of fun, a real shame they sold the track for it to a developer.

    You've got a really nice Capri, only other local one I've seen was a red convertible in Cartersville. Do you know of any clubs in the area? I'm in the works to pick up an LTD to build for occasional autocross & looking for a group in the area that's either into racing or car show's.

    I appreciate the info!

    I'll be sure to make time for those events, hopefully I'll have the car in order to drive it there. I doubt it'll be ready to show it off, but it'll still be fun to drive it in.
