Oh, We didn't! Joe got there to late and I was fixing a broken stud the entire time. One thing you might want to do to your axles is weld the studs in with a small tack weld. All of my studs were loose and one had backed out so far it hit a backing plate bolt or something and broke right off. Two minutes after I got my car back together I was getting ready to adjust the air in the slicks and they call over the intercom "Racing has stopped for the evening due to rain". So no run's for me or Joe. The guy I really wanted to race ran an 11.8 at 126.4.

Yeah that **** sucked!!! It was fun for three runs though.
What a difference from PIR. Track is better and the cars are loud as HELL!!
I ran a PB on the first run 13.124@108.87..lol
I ran Tyler the second time and I killed him at the light and almost got him at the ends. Damn those gears are sick.
Sucks Joe and Brandon didn't get to race. Joe your car sounds badass that's for sure.

Thanks Joe, I feel bad you drove all the way down and not be able to run.
My best ET last night was a 12.91 and my new best MPH was 112
it was fun, too bad it started to rain I really wanted to see Joe and Poncho run there cars!!
Did anyone get any video?
