Jordan was her name and the funnest part was when it was time to leave the bar after it shut down. Mike wouldn't leave so she called for someone to help and mike pushed the hang up button and it just started it all from there.

for all you guys talking about struggling to get weight down...I was 3150# (with Driver)...factory brakes, all glass, OEM hood, etc, etc....no one part gets you there, its a combination of all the little things you can do. I could easily get my car below 3000# with driver with the $$$ parts.

Wow Ray, I have tried to get some weight out of my car but, I guess not hard enough. I'm still in the 3500 range with my big ***.

Yea unfortunately I think there are more heavy weights than there are light weights. I think a lot of people have a hard time deciding between street car and race car.

See you guys at the race...


I was 3175 with extra weight in the car, and i still know where to pull an unwanted 200lbs out




Street cars get the fuel mileage, Race cars get the trophies ; you decide...
