I'm so sorry about your car, you can't wish that on even your worst enemy. I hope you guys get everything sorted out.

Also, in the "MIM pics" thread, they mentioned your car. I said maybe we should stay quiet about it for now, until you say so, for legal reasons. Just a heads up. Good luck, and see ya later!

The GTO wasn't my car. My car wasn't even there cause it is still in the shop. But I feel really bad for the guy who does own the gto. I just hope that he gets everything worked out.

There was 2 or 3 cars with a blown trans, another with a blown rearend, the older blue car broke first run out, motor went bye bye on another car, the gto, and a mustang broke while leaving the track. Someone had a slick go flat on the way to the track and another person lost the wheel bearing on there trailer on the way to the track too. And those are just the ones that I know about right now.


onebadws6......shhhhhhh your not suppose to tell anyone bout that

OK, when I asked who's car it was you said "Ours", so I kinda thought you and him were together somehow. But yeah, hope he gets it worked out. That sucks bad.

All the casualties was one reason I only made one pass. I said "**** it, I'm leaving on a high note". I'm usually the one with breakage, so I figured my time was right around the corner.

It was a good time. I feel track prep was not that great. Last year the prep was much better. Still had a great time though.

Yes I do.

Track prep was good for my T/A early on, it should have been resprayed after lunch because it turned to crap. My Z really couldn't hook well all day unless I stalled it and let it roll out.

I only made a couple passes early on. I heard it was going to be resprayed arround 10 so I was waiting for that. Never happened so I would make a pass or two and chill for a while. Auto cars seemed to hook OK. No M6 cars were hooking though. Last year was much better in that aspect.
