Well we've worn out the other post so I will start the results here and continue with heat racing after their tabulated.
Starting with the slower classes first.
Mod VP 2 lap time 39.45 by Shawn Junker with a Vision/OS 21
45 Superstock 2 lap 34.63 by Mic Halbrehder HTV/Nelson can muffler.
20 Stock/Sport tunnel 2 lap 32.13 by John Otto (matic) Lxnx/OS
very heated competition with Lynx and Visions all in the hunt.
40 Mod Tunnel 2 lap 27.44 by John Otto Vision/CMB with custom Otto lower.
Jay Halbehder and John were wiping each other off the leader board through the day. Jay laid down a late afternoon 27.90 and John came back with time running down on his last run scrubbing a bouy and a 28.20. Stayed upright and opted for one last go and put down the final kill with the sub 28 second time.
20 Mod tunnel went off in windy rough conditions with Britton'sLynx in he low 28's and that kept him top of the board till the water calmed down around noon. Ron Drake put down a mid 26 second run that looked unbeatable with his Lynx. Shawn Junker in the afternoon pulled off the run of the day with a blistering 25.67 pushing his Vision/CMB through the turns hard. With time running down Ron made a few nice runs with a 12.4 split time only to miss a bouy in the second lap invalidating the run. There were more than one sub Namba record times. Unoficial as we used 3 stop watches and threw out the high and low. More often than not all 3 watches recorded within one tenth of a second of each other. Hats off to all that competed.
Side note the Brandon course is an official surveyed permanent course with sub bouys in place. Though unofiicial for actual records this puts Florida tunnels on the map with no where having as many quality boats in one club.
On to heat racing tommorow best 4 out of 5 heats on a challenging tri-oval course to sort out the best of the best in Southeast tunnel racing. Bragging rights until Charleston are on the line.
