Car looked great this weekend Tim.. Can't see what it does with a little more boost and all the bugs worked out.
lol not really. my nitrous solenoid didnt fire so the car loaded up on fuel and fell on its face or i would have been right there so i was just concerned with what the car was doing and looked up like wow that looks like a fun ride lol. it was a blessing in disguise that it messed up. here is another view

Thanks for the link!
And correct John.. The car that wheelied was a TA ws6, there was also two white formys.
I'm pretty sure he broke something because I didn't see the car again after that, not even parked or loaded up.

I ran down the track with that white TA one time and I am so glad that did not happen during our race because if I remember correctly he ran a low 60 to my mid 50's so I would have been right there! Glad no one was hurt, cars can be fixed racers cannot!!
I lived through one of those wheel stands earlier this year. Very glad to see the car stayed right side up!

Yup. The show me state 
. Usually shifting brings it down smooth, this time it just kept pulling until I let out. Then bang, back to the cold hard ground. Damn gravity.

SYF (X275). Wow, where was all the internet talkers? This was their race, rules and all (1/8 mile). Brian Black's (smkn95 ta) car looks better in person than on the internet, nice ride for sure, on a rail. I assume it has more in it, he was just racing smart. Hopkins (sp?) made a nice hit 5.15 at one point, struggled with consistency though, nonetheless FAST car. Ray Litz (Koolrayz) made a nice pass in the 5.30's (impressive at his weight) for a street legal car. Nice job Ray.
Congrats to all my friends out there that did well! Paul, Ted, Brian Black and Mr. Hopkins, Im glad yall all had a good weekend. I just wish Meeks would have turned it down some and went some rounds instead of just hunting for a number.

I would assume you are talking about me or Wayne. I was at a local race less than 2 hours from home and Wayne and Steve were gone to pick up a new car trailer. I couldn't justify driving that far to race when the payout wasn't worth it. I feel like I won the race out there anyway with Brian Black taking it home. Heck I even had parts on a car in the real street class.

Consistency goes rounds and wins races, gunning for records normally doesn't
Gravel Road Tuneup to the front!
Thanks Justin.

Great to meet many of you guys too. I had a blast on the True Street Cruise with all the people of Bowling Green stopping and staring at all the 8, 9,10,11 second cars. I think I was the lone Thirdgen F-Car there.....
I was pretty pumped getting third averaging 9.57... (9.56, 9.61, 9.52) David's car is in another league although I thought that black Nova had something for him. Nope...
