I was there and there were some badass cars running there. I saw the black bitch car. I didnt run since my son was with me, besides its more fun to watch rather than sit in the staging lanes.

The best part was the mustang thats wheel flew off on the launch and the car almost slid into rich christison I hate that guy. You got lucky that time rich you queer. I might have to run my car at pinks next time and roll up to the line with some loose *** lugnuts.

Too bad it was so ******* cold there all day.

Although I wasn't there, I let a friend take my car. He ran a 10.19 on a 100 shot. Air was good this morning.

Congrats on your new best ET. I wasn't there, but was at the season opener from Seattle.

Yeah we had GREAT time! We broke the Posi unit Friday night so we just motored it through saturday skating all over the track! There was ALOT of fast f-bodies running for sure. Got to hang out with the PINKS cast in their RV during the break (my 7 year old daughter LOVED that!) Also had alot of people coming up asking about our episode so that was pretty cool.
All in all had a great time!

Beer the OS5 ROCKS. The system to get into the 16 is in my estimation part talent, part luck and part TV entertainment. They pulled the 16 from 10.5 or "mid 10's". That's what my 1st oficial PINKS run was. On my 2nd run I was paird with a real nice mid sixties body vette. He was def a low 9 car i'd guess. Because I was footbraking my starts (my transbrake launches need a lot of work lol) I dialed the minicontroller to ease in a 200 shot...anyway I launched too soft and the vette got out faster than my probably 1.6 ish 60' and then got squirrely (sp)...I KNOW I hesitated as he drifted hard towards my lane. He was a good driver got it back and won by maybe a half sec but I know my hesitation, and soft launch may have caused me a 1/4 sec? Hell it was fun. I'll get the suspension dialed in a few weeks and learned the proper tranbrake start. But as my pal NOSJNKY (hey Philip!!) says "that's racin'". Hell yea it was a good time...cold but cool!! lol.

Nice meeting you out there. Had a great time. They called us back up there for a fun run(9.50 class). I was already loaded up, but took it back off the trailer. Made a pass and loaded it up again.

Did managed a new best with our black SS. 8.65 @ 159.56. That was worth going. Maybe we will see you @ the next one

He's perfect for the TV show and that's what it's all about. Why else would they have even shown that move.

Back to making this N20 related. I do not recall seeing a N20 vendor at the track. I only took 2 10lb bottles...I long for the days of the 125 shot sometimes. Now that i'm going to a 300 shot, anyone need some 10 lbers?? J/K. Just have to swap out more frequently.

I figured that Rich would be more respected amidst the Ls1Tech crowd......Do you think he shaves his head because of how much more gay he would look with a ******* mullet!
