Default Thanks to everyone that put on LS Fest!

Just wanted to thank everyone for a dang good time at this event. Unfortunately I scattered my motor on the second test shot friday, but I hopped in my buddies ctsv for plan B and went 3 rounds in Rumble. I also ran my vette in true street, auto-x and speed stop and had a blast. I ended up winning 14.0 in True Street with the vette, so not all was a loss! I figured out how to let off and coast and make my average 14.02! Autocross this morning in the rain/wet was a blast and I didnt even care about my times, just running for a thrill.

All in all I cant complain one bit about anything, it was all a blast and I already cant wait for next year.

I agree I had a blast and cant complain a bit. I had a good chance to win the 12.0 true street but messed up on my last pass and averaged a 12.10. Made it to 7 cars in the rumble. Never ran the quarter mile and have to say way better than the eighth. Ran a best of 11.37 on saturday. Really think it wouldve went better today but was trying not to break out of my 11.50 index. I also cut a perfect light on one of my passes today.

No.. His was the Pewter FRC that did drifting in the rain. I think he only made a few passes through the autox.

The yellow Zo6 that had black rims with steam roller tires on it is another middle TN member, luke (speedyhawk101, not sure of his name on tech). He only made like.... 459845 passes! Was a great time though, I can see why he made so many.
James, I don't think I got to chat with you at all this weekend, you were a bit busy it seemed! HA

thanks for stopping, I pulled off in the grass and there was smoke and I thought I caught the grass on fire haha. I knew it broke a rod and I was right.

I dont mind, the motor was old, still stock bore and crank, but I hated to bust a nice set of rods. ARP rod bolts arent bulletproof!

Your method of looking under a car is by far the funniest one I have seen.
