Great turnout! Had alot of fun until I got screwed on the first round of time trails. I'm doing my burnout and the person in the lane next goes and stages both lights. I go to stage and trip the first light and the person next to me goes and deep stages as he's doing that I'm tripping the second bulb and the starter started the tree as I'm staging and it red lighted me. He wouldn't let me go again and run the next person, that was a bunch of shit! So I end up making some passes in the fun lane. Ran 12.8s most of the day. The car was hooking hard all day. Last pass it's dead hooking every gear I get on the return road and I hear a noise didn't think to much about it, went to the pits and changed the tires(Thanks Drew). We go to leave and the car is clunking loud and feels like its dragging when it does it. Looks like I broke something in the right rear or in the diff ![[Eek!]](eek.gif) So I ended up going home on a Trailer. BIG THANKS to Mike aka 2Stangs for putting my car on his trailer and taking it home for me, I owe you one.

It's cool. It was the starter who messed up by starting the tree before I was fully staged. How many rounds did you go?

Sorry to hear about the breakage Mark. I saw the run between you and SF. I was trying to figure out what happened as I couldn't see the lights for crap where I was at.
Good to see you solidly in the 12s now though even with the temps being a lil high.
I got me a new best also but it's not that impressive. I'll wait till the turbo is on to brag Hahaha

I had a blast at the all Fords race. I was able to lose my first race on my own with no help from the crew at the track LOL. But I did set some new best's 11.41 and 124 mph the 160,000 mile short block keeps rolling on(smokes a little on start up now)I just wish they would of let us race up to 5.00. I could smell a 11.30 Some day I will put drag slics on it to see what it will do.

What long day that was, got to the track at 9 a.m. and stayed thru the grudge match. But it was fun. I rolled out with sac 5.0 to snap some pics of his car and help him out since saturday was the first time he took a full pass since building his car, on his very first run (wednesday night)an upper control arm broke right off the line. Next race it will have skinnies and the front headlights on.

Good seeing some friends out there on the track seeing there cars go! It was good talking to you 2 stangs.
The only question I have is, who was the dude that was ripping the tires every were but where he was suppose to in the Black newer GT? Then he was gona take a gas can in his passenger seat down the track with him! not too bright But I guess he will learn.
Oh yeah that chick in the red Lighting was very cute as well!

Yes it was George's Nova. They were actualy talking about a guy in a white mid 60's nova wanting to run them for some cash. Sounds like everybody had a good time. Anybody take any pics or video's.

Cool, I only went two more rounds because I had to get back to the city. I got a total of 7 runs in and a new best of 13.69 @ 103.4.

How much? I am going to be buying a new set of headers soon so I will also need a X, H or chamber. LMK

It ok, if I were to get upset everytime someone hit on my wife I would be the madest person in the world. ![[Cool]](cool.gif)
