And #12 & 16 are the BeaSSt vs the SAM car in the Pro Stock finals...

Sorry guys the pics 1-13 are as good a quality as I could pull off.

The later pics were taken by SoSlow, he might have some higher quality ones.

Geez, I didn't realize I got up so high on that one. I was having fun playing with all four HAL shocks yesterday, I finally got them set so it would launch flat. 3s up front, 4 driver's rear, 6 on passenger rear, 20 psi airbag. I've got a nice photo of a flat launch taken by the professional photographer that I'll scan and post. THAT TRACK HOOKS!!!

Cool, didn't realize that #19 was me vs Judson again. It looks like i'm about a foot in the air on that photo, that was a *only* a 1.51 60' <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
