How many of you have taken your T-bucket to the drag strip?

Did that once, forget how fast the 1/4 mile was. Will have to look and post if I can the "official" time sheet we were given & the photos.

Haha once or twice. I have another race this weekend in Boonsboro, MD, going to be a hot one! We just run 1/8 mile and I usually run a 9.7ish. Good enough for a tired 225 slant six with unknown miles and probably 100 hp if that.

Earlier this year in May I took it out on the dirt track and had some fun. Photos are too large to upload and difficult resizing on my phone.

I did this tutorial for posting from an iPhone or iPad back in 2018 so things might have changed.

Thread 'Post a Photo From an iPhone/iPad'

Feb 11, 2018

If I say iPhone or iPad it's the same for both devices, so it does not matter.

You cannot just post a photo you have taken from your iPad for it's too big
and will be rejected. You will need an app to reduce the file size by about
75 percent. I have only tried two apps, but of those two I recommend
"Photo Compress". It's the most simple to use since that's about all it does.
So below you will see screen captures using that app.

After taking the photo, then the first thing you will have to do is open
Photo Compress and following the images below. Then once the reduced
size photo is...

Thanks @Indycars and @Spanky let's see if I have them the right size now.
This was from this weekend with the new hood I made. Still waiting to find some on track photos posted on facebook

This is after track time at Circle M in Auburn PA.

I have an android phone so had to download another app to compress the photos and for some reason the compressed photos have wonky colors. I guess that program reduces the colors used to reduce file size vs just making it a smaller photo

Yikes now looking at these on my computer they are awful haha

Thanks! I made it out of the back of a filling cabinet. If I get some time this week I will post pics of the process in my build thread on here
