Thanks Rich. The race was my cam only car on a BFG radial against a H/C LT1 on a full slick. I gave him the hit and he won by two. I reeled him in pretty damn good like Rich said. Thanks to all who came out and participated. Anyone have a video???

Yeah man, don't worry about it. The season is young.

Takes ***** to race for decent money like that, especially when it's not all yours.

Yeah, I shouldn't have gave him what I did, but I do what I can to get a race off.

I don't think anyone will call us safe racers this year. We had plenty of cars willing to race out last night, and the season is just starting.

They were dumbasses...They wanted either the hit or 6 from matt.

That first spot was a stupid idea. Lets all part 50 cars on the on-ramp and then block off a major street.

I don't know...It's a spot they used before, but when you have 50+ cars in a line going down the street from corners, making u-turns, and then parking all over the place with people stading out in the middle of a busy *** street, it looks suspicious.

Shoulda been the two cars racing and a couple cars from each side. Haha I went anyways though.
