Interesting day at the track yesterday... it was Import Day, so the best way to describe the track prep is absolute $hit Instead of me writing a long report... check out this video... it pretty much sums things up!

Wow, it was pretty crazy to see you run a 9.4 all over the track like that.

It looks like you were trying to make passes on a hockey rink! Get that thing to a good track and look out!

you definitely have an 8.50 in that car easy with that mph.

How does the car feel, does it feel kinda scarey on the top end?

What's scarey is it seems like you plenty more in her! congrats!!
