Thanx. I hope I don't spin 'em, I'm a little rusty. I do wonder what time I could post if the "stars align" and "hell freezes over" simultaneously and I put down a near perfect run.

There's a 50/50 chance they're gonna say you need to have a roll bar/cage. If they do, I'd just practice launching and then if you get it down, go for it but they make tell you to park it for the rest of the night.

good luck

That makes no sense to run a grudge night along with a qualifing somebody had a brainfart.

Yeah, I hear ya. I figure I've got one shot if they let me go at all. I think that even with a crappy launch I can still get 11's, so they'll probably have me park it after one run regardless. Sounds like the track should be prepped good so I hope I get a chance and hit a good run. Hope to cya there. [patriot]

If you have sticky tires I'd just heat them up really really good with a 10 second burnout and then stomp on it from idle.

If you have street radials you'll probably want to ease it off the line. Good Luck [patriot]

Just for the record, the top fuel guys were done pretty quickly, I got 4 runs in, coulda had 6-7 if I wanted, track was prepped very nicely since the "big boys" were there. Info only [patriot]

thats called wednesday night my friend. btw grudge is only for street cars with a few faster 'street' cars. the only reason pro mods were running was because they had a race the next day.
