hey tony, i haven't been to the track a whole lot this last past season but i'm the large body mustang guy who has his mustang painted the same colors as the 49ers helmet and jerseys.
car looks good and sounds good but i'm only an 11 second car!
also, are we going to have to display our times in the 11.5 way or a 11.58 way?

I didn't get to stay and watch the whole event. But it was a good time while I was there. Wind was blowing so It wasn't that hot out.
It was funny watching the corvettes try and launch. They clearly aren't built for drag.

was a great night out! just seemed like there wasn't as many vehicles like the last two years. i wish we would bring back the burnout contest again.
however, using tubes in my slicks helped me out tremendously!

That's true. There were a bunch of stands not built for the strip. They just couldn't hook up.
There was a white termi that just spun spun spun

tony was your best time the 11.2? idk i got there around 5:30 or did you break into 10's?
Hey Jose, thanks for the video. Its at a better angle. There was a problem and I couldn't upload my racegas tune, so I was only on my street tune. I was a lil upset about that cuz I think if I had the extra hp I would have been in the tens. But yes my best was that 11.2 run.
