Default Carnage@HRP for 2K2 LS1

Well after a 270 mile trip to HRP and a highly eventful weekend. I ended up not even getting to race my car. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" /> Here's what happened. I did my burnout and noticed the track was alot better prepped then Ennis ever is. I brought the car up to 3k rpm's, and at the green light dropped the clutch. Boom Bitch the driveshaft shredded into about 4-5 pieces. I then had to hop out the car and roll that POS back to the pits. Damn it sounded alot worse then just a drive shft. I then proceeded to swap driveshafts in the pits before we could leave back to dallas. Well we shall see what the car runs, and hopefuly get my 11 sec pass this fri at ennis. Here are a few pics of this weekend. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Hey, I remeber you. Guess you all got home OK. I am the chick that was in the Black Camaro with the big cowl hood with weld prostars on it. BTW I sent Lane some pictures I took where you can see your cars rear end up in the air in the pits. If he hasn't sent them to you and you want them let me know and I will send them to you.
