Default Just got back from TR Shootout...

Had a great time. NPR is a very nice track, I just wish it wasn't a 4 hour drive. I ran in the bracket class, made it to the 3rd round and redlighted. Got a new best also, thats always a plus.

New best,
1.66
7.67 @ 88.96
12.07 @ 111.85 (12.DOH club) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

Thanks to Thunder Racing for a nice event <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

I hope to see you there next year .I too had a new best of 11.84@ 118.15 with a 1.75 on Nittos. My best 60.ft was a 1.71 yesterday but ran through the Muffler trying to slow dawn to a 12.00 so they would not kick me out for no cage and still ran a 11.87 at 116.8 mph . If I had just ran one more pass with open cut out that may have been an 11.7?. Maybe next time.
