Tonight was a very strange night at the track. All kinds of odd things were happening. A cop came into the pits chasing a guy on a motorcycle. One of the track officails got hit by a car in the back parking lot and I got first place....lol
To bad the car was running slower than it should. But we wont get into that
After 8 secind place finishes, I finally got a clean pass in the the final. I guess there is a first time for everything
Oh yeah, I had to beat a N20 camaro in the final

Oh yeah, like 98slowhoe mentioned, after one pass I somehow got a small leak in one of my slicks. This wasn't realized unil I launched on my 2nd pass and the car got WAY out of shape. I grabbed 2nd and had to steer into the car, (not a normal occurance for my car). I though about aborting the run, but obvioulsy didn't. Looking back now I'm glad that I didn't cut the pass short. But I will say that its hard to drive a car at 100 + MPH with only 4.5 psi of tire pressure!

Heh, if we are racing, it will be at the track, and if its at the track, I wont be on street tires. Sorry bro, $800+ for a pair of street tires compared to $300 for a pair of slicks, ummmm....it just makes sense not to rip on the street tres, wouldn't you say?
