Default The new and improved N/A M6 record.

It is now at 10.47 @ 131.99. with a 1.53 60 ft.

I managed this at N vs S. I was hoping to improve on it some more but the track went away and I couldn't hook.

N vs S was a blast. We shared a few Molson Canadians outside in the parking lot on the friday night. (about 3 cases worth) Glad to meet everyone, Mikey, Sue, Joe Overton, Steve, the Thunder crew, the Futral crew. etc etc.

Roman

Nice job Roman! It was nice to finally meet you in person. You definitely had your car running well given the track conditions.

Thanks guys.

SilverGhost, next time just look for the beer tent. Or look for the Ontario plates. Next time come over for a beer.

Skeletor, oops I mean Jason. Nice driving and nice to meet you.

383 ss, you're almost there keep her coming.

Joe, nice to meet you too. Awesome car. But next time I don't know if I can park beside you and Mikey. With all of that yelling and all. Thanks for all of the advice. Remember take it easy with that Canadian beer.

Thanks Villain281H. Done.

Abdulla, 3358 at N vs S. Thanks, I watch my 9 sec video a lot too.

Thanks Vince. Good luck with your ride. Will it be done soon?

Chris, thanks. Need those injectors yet?

Thanks Coach.

Todd, and I thought that you were sociable.

Thanks Allan. Now to do some tuning.

Thanks Mikey for that idling tip. And all of the other hints that you gave us.

Roman
