Welcome to the first page of ex-pat Frenchman (now US resident) Benoit Pigeon's eclectic collection.
For his first page Benoit presents a pictorial record of Swede Adam Flamholc's campaign in Pro Modified at the American Drag Racing League's 'Dragpalooza IX' meeting held at Rockingham Dragway, North Carolina over the weekend of 9 and 10 March 2013.
If you define having a good meeting as getting through to the final and winning the event, then you could say Adam and his team had a good meeting.  However, if you also consider qualifying number one with a career-best elapsed time, and all of this done several thousand miles from home, I think you would have to describe Adam's meeting as nothing short of stellar.
For the record these are the stats :

Qualifying :

  3.864 seconds at 193.46 mph - number 1 qualifier

Round 1 :

  3.871 seconds at 193.38 mph - bye run

Round 2 :

  3.885 seconds at 193.35 mph def. James Linton Jr. 4.122/182.75

Semi-finals :

  3.917 seconds at 192.58 mph def. Todd Howard 3.953/191.38

Final :

  3.962 seconds at 189.10 mph def. Raymond J Matos foul

They do say that consistency is the name of the game . . .
Enjoy the pictures.
