Sierra Pipe Racing Not Able to Attend Spokane Due
to an overwhelming number of family commitments, the Sierra Pipe 38’ Chevy will not be in attendance at this weekends
Spokane AA/Supercharged event. This was a difficult decision to make, as it effectively takes us out of the 2009 championship,
along with an opportunity to add another track record to our resume. Racing is a huge part of all or our lives, but
family is what life is all about. As the Spokane date approached, family plans for the holiday weekend began to take
shape. All members of our team were affected and it finally got to the point that we made a team decision to not attend
the Spokane event. This was a difficult decision and we would like to take this opportunity to apologize to Bucky, Jay
and the entire Spokane County Raceway staff, along with all of the AA/Supercharged teams. We hope that everyone understands
and we hope to hold this event on a different weekend next year.

Woodburn #2 Quick Race Results Going into race day the Sierra Pipe team had a combination that would go down the track with ease.
We made minimal changes going into the first round match-up with Troy Owen. The result was a slower than expected 6.88
at 201MPH. We were matched with Mike Molea in the Semi-finals, with Mike running a great 6.92 in his first round victory.
Rather than making no changes, we wanted to step it up slightly for Mike. A small fuel system change resulted in a huge
gain in horsepower and we blew the tires off immediately. Mike lost a blower belt and slowed to 170MPH, but still ran
a 6.91. The final matched Mike with Gary Reinero, with Gary taking the victory at 6.80 seconds at 203MPH. Congratulations
to the Reinero team. Complete race results to come.
Woodburn #2 Qualifying Results Good conditions were not a help today at Woodburn. All of the AA/Supercharged team entered
the day with optimism, but it ended with a variety of minor issues that did not produce the killer qualifying numbers.
When the dust settled, the Sierra Pipe 38' Chevy was on top. Huge clutch slippage on the first pass yielded a 6.96 at
202 MPH. For the second pass we made a major adjustment and dipped into the 6.7 second zone for low ET an top speed
of the event. Going into Sunday we still have major room for improvement, but we will just take it one round at a time,
to try and take home another Woodburn signiture trophy. Hopefully the rain will avoid Woodburn Dragstrip and we complete
the event. 1. Howard Anderson 6.799
