5.02 Pass

Besides the awesome turnout at Paradise Dragstrip this past Sunday ( March 4th) there was two passes that made my day...and other spectators too lol . The big moment when Jim Brackett rolled out his stretched Mule  (and I have to point out Chevy powered) to attempt a 4 sec pass on the ol' dragstrip . As you'll see in the video  , it was close , he made a 5.02 pass at 134mph !!! I say once the tracks gets some more action and the weather perks up a bit we'll see him take that mean Mule into the 4's.


The other cool site was a pair of slick Mavericks , with Mr. Al Baker in the left lane and Russ Grimes in his 74' in the right. This Heads-Up race just looked too natural up on the hill at Paradise. It felt good to catch such a shot but I couldn't help to feel the image needed something...or more correctly...less. I had to dirty it up and give it a vintage feel , knock off that super clean digital look ya know haha .
