Sorry to hear about that Mike, it blows big time. Even though I drive my car to the track I always put my extra set of keys in my pocket when leaving for the track.

Mike... so sorry man. I was up watching some racing with my son after seeing you and kept looking at the car on the trailer. We finally walked down and Amy was just chilling in the truck, it was getting late and I made the comment of..hey you guy just making a Sat cruise ( not knowing what happened ). Amy then told me what had happened and I was like F # C K !

Nathan enjoyed Amy too ( as most guys probably do ) and when we were leaving asked if he comes to the track again will she be there

looks like rain now, so no track today either

LMAO^^^^
Im still so bummed out. I usually leave a set in the car and carry a set with me. I just happened to clean out the car when I got home from Speedinc wed, and when I gave my bud the spare Jeep keys I set the Firebirds keys on the dresser and ran out the door since it was getting kinda late.


Thank you!!! Thank you!! I accept the biggest douche award with open arms. I deserve it for that one!!!

Wow is all I can say Mike that truly blows and Im so sorry for that. I remeber 1 day drving all the way to the track for a SCC event and had NO nitrous in the bottle and they were not even selling nitrous that day. My wife and I were pissed off, but I got a bottle from a buddy and raced a stang that day and made $185 after splitting the pot with my 3 buddies. Then the wife was happy, thats all that matters,lol.

Well at least I dont need to wash the car before I store it this winter, unless God decides to give a few more weeks of nice weather.

Tell me about it! GLD has not offically closed for the yr just yet, if they dont salt the streets and it doesnt get really cold we might have another shot this season.
I wonder how far south I would need to travel to find a track still open.
