Somebody who had talked a bit too much at BPS about how impressive their car was coming up way short at the track. MPH was not even close to the BS they had tossed out. The excuses were rather funny to hear.

I thought I saw the Neon on 460 heading up there as we were on our way home. Lots of Popo out Friday on the way back.

Hey bud, hows it going out there... I called him, no answer, no return, he probably just didnt recognize my number. I'll have a call back and leave a message I suppose.

Not entirely bad but I guess it was good for the conditions. I couldn't get the car to hook. Track prep wasn't that great and weather was worse when we were there. It was the only clean pass I ran the entire day. Looking forward to Nov. 16th. They are having another track rental up there.
I will be making it to MIR soon as well.
Damn. So close. I would have thought with that mph and that good of a 60 ft you would have made it for sure.

I figured I would have also. I left at 3500rpm on that pass. I tried to launch higher but the track wouldn't take it. If I can get on a "prepped" track I know it will run a number.

3!!!! Holy poop! GMRulz said you all were going to stop on 460 for gas, I looked back after getting on 85 and no sight of you

Hiding behind the trailer is a good spot to keep Popo at bay. And let me know if one has sneaked up behind me.

51 in a 35 zone, wrong address on drivers license, and I didn't have my registration in the car. The last two are my fault but I know I wasnt going 51 because I was slowing for a stop light.

Wow, no exhaust ticket. That's impressive. Those other two suck though. Let me guess, you were in Windsor right?

I spun in first and second. I launched and it bogged a little, then it picked up and spun middle way through first, and then again on the one, two shift.

Are the DR's taller than your stock tires? Could have thrown off the speedo a couple MPH. Sounds like you were in Waverly or was it Ivor?

Nice times.... Josh took his 06 2500 quad cab diesel and ran a 14.5@95 with just a programmer.... Pretty impressive. Yours is a dually, right?

Who was talking their car up???? And what did it end up running????

Yea me and Kyle made it up there right after you guys left.... Luckily, no tickets for us!!! We were making some good time there and back too....

I might be down for another T&T up there... I just dont think the truck will be making any more passes up here... I need to get it home in one piece... and with the rear hurting like it is, I dont want to push it.

I'll drive it up there and carry tires and fuel or whatever though...
