Those pics look great! Was nice to see such a big gathering, next time I think we should all pitch in for a private track rental or something at Cecil or MIR, got way too slow in the middle there when everyone kept breaking. Congrats to Mike, Tony, Pat, and everyone who set personal bests and records. Was some nice air in the morning, got the fever back in me too, Ive been drag racing everyone from stop lights in my DD since I got home!

And Popo, yea that was my truck. I spent more time sitting in the staging lanes than in the pits so I didnt get to say hi to everyone who had cars I recognized, but I did see your white car before I left, but nobody was standing by it.

Trying to collect and steal all the pics I can.... we took em with phones... a camera, and Ive been stealing them from other members as they post.....

I was about to approach you and ask if you posted about finding a rusted frame rail in the tahoe (pretty sure I remember you posting that once) that kept you from feeling comfortable towing.....

I was the dark guy with the NEON yellow hoodie on...

Yeah that's my friend Matt. He did a stroker LSx swap and just put a t-56 in. Still trying to figure out how to launch that turd. He won't listen to me.

Whose Vette was that? I thought I had it beat and then he goes right on by like it was nothing.

Funny story to that vette... It belongs to a NH dude, name Justin.

7 years ago, I sold the old long block from my camaro to an older dude that came to my house and picked it up..... years later I meet Mike V at the shootout, and a few years after that.. I get a message on facebook from a guy named JUSTIN... he recognizes my camaro.. tells me whats been done to it, and then I find out that Mike V, helped him with assembling part of it...

Its a small world but even though it wasnt the same stock LT1 anymore.. I was excited to see it run down the track...

BEST PART he and that red C2 corvette drove 5.5 hours from NH..... then raced...then drove home!!!
