Default Flashlight Drags in Beaver

Went to the Flashlight drags in Beaver on Saturday. Just wanted to thank everybody that stopped and asked if I was ok. You see after making my run my throttle STUCK! Wow what a feeling ! I didn't panic though I just put her in nutreal and shut the key off. I then coasted around the corner and pulled off the track. I popped the hood to see what was going on and EVERYBODY that came around after that stopped and asked if I was ok. They offered tools and help anything I needed. Luckley it was just the sping stuck and I was back up and running in no time. I was just very impressed with how helpful and friendly everyone there was. That was my first time at any event like that. I would have liked to run something in my class but everybody was sort of picking and choosing who the would run. I just pulled up and took anybody who wanted to run. Needless to say I got blown away both times
(by two very hot trucks) But I had fun and leaned some stuff anyway. I'll be back , next time not so green. I did see one guy there I think I have seen on here. He has a white Camaro with orange strips. Was going to see if he wanted to run but when the throttle stuck for the second time I figured I better just take her home till I figure out what is causing it. See ya next time

ROFL!

Yeah, there isn't much over here. I've been looking for "the local guys" but haven't found anyone yet really.
