Good shit bro! And I bet you were happy to see that 13 second slip, huh?<br />hopefully next time the track will be up to par! <br />by the way, I got our race on tape. ANd I know that was your first time out there with the truck, so if you would like a copy, I can prolly put it up on the board so you can snatch it up! Only thing that sucks about the tape, is that the clocks weren't working so there is no proof on the tape how close it REALLY was. Also the funny thing about it is that my buddy who was taping said that some kid standing right next to him said "watch this Camaro beat the Lightning" You showed that guy he was wrong <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> It just would have been a much much cooler tape if the times were up!<br />Great race, and let me know if I should put that video up!<br />Thanks <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>DennisG</b> <br /><small>Member # 163</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,3,19,7,1,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Sweet!
