Getting nice weather in the northwest spring that can change hourly and even sunny here and downpours a mile away is not uncommon.<\/p>\n<p>To a drag racer when they hear the weatherman say no rain until early evening it is pure joy, on top of that it\u2019s a Saturday. The lanes packed with cars showed many a racers were glad to be shaking off the winter and ready to once again hit the dragstrip at Pacific Raceways.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/seeitimagery.smugmug.com\/PacificRaceway\/Test\/TNT-26Mar2016\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4739\" src=\"http:\/\/www.seeitimagery.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Test-and-Tune-3-26-16-038.jpg\" alt=\"Test and Tune 3-26-16 038\" width=\"520\" height=\"344\" srcset=\"http:\/\/seeitimagery.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Test-and-Tune-3-26-16-038.jpg 520w, http:\/\/seeitimagery.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Test-and-Tune-3-26-16-038-300x198.jpg 300w, http:\/\/seeitimagery.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Test-and-Tune-3-26-16-038-453x300.jpg 453w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 520px) 100vw, 520px\" \/><\/a>The day before Easter has a lot of families together for the day and as all know racing is a family sport and to do this together makes no difference that it\u2019s a holiday weekend. Grandparents and young mothers watching the kids play in the enclosed area Pacific has brings the future racers to the enjoyment of the sport. How many racers today have memories of the same thing, you talk to them and they will tell you, yes.<\/p>\n<p>The race team combinations have many forms like Gary and his wife and the red Camaro or John and son Ian both now in dragsters though John\u2019s is bigger also grandpa Terry handing the keys of his sleek new race car to his 16 and a half year old grandson Yeshua to license in. No matter how you describe the team, family is the focal point. Friends, family and racing this was the real first test and tune of the 2016 season (the first rained out just after starting) enjoying the spring weather.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/seeitimagery.smugmug.com\/PacificRaceway\/Test\/TNT-26Mar2016\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4738\" src=\"http:\/\/www.seeitimagery.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Test-and-Tune-3-26-16-331.jpg\" alt=\"Test and Tune 3-26-16 331\" width=\"520\" height=\"345\" srcset=\"http:\/\/seeitimagery.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Test-and-Tune-3-26-16-331.jpg 520w, http:\/\/seeitimagery.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Test-and-Tune-3-26-16-331-300x199.jpg 300w, http:\/\/seeitimagery.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Test-and-Tune-3-26-16-331-452x300.jpg 452w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 520px) 100vw, 520px\" \/><\/a>What was not normal to hear this early here is the sound of a \u201cnitro\u201d motor running. This motor resides in the frame rails of Dana Meeks nitro Harley out to test for an event in Vegas upcoming.\u00a0 Made two productive runs too, the last ending the day of testing and tuning for all as the winter time curfew is still in effect. Good luck to Dana and all else in a couple weeks for the next test and tune.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/seeitimagery.smugmug.com\/PacificRaceway\/Test\/TNT-26Mar2016\/\" target=\"_blank\">Thanks to the great conditions there are over 300 images to choose from in the photo album.
