I'll definately be there Saturday for the dbl points race........and I talked a buddy into racing for us, so that's actually more points for us. And maybe even more if one or both of us can stay in the racing.


As far as the run what you brung thing goes.........I'd like to do it, but I think I'll stick with the CCC races and having some fun with my new setup. I'm not familliar enough with it to slap some 200hp jets on it and go for broke. Not to mention that I don't even have a cage yet.

I'll definately be down for some of that when I have a cage and I'm familiar with the new setup!

I was actually thinking about coming up and watching you guys race and meet some of you on Saturday. Maybe I could get some info on how to join and race with the club next year.

Now WHO would even THINK of trying that? I decided to only run the baby jets....190RWHP shot


Well unless testing shows a need for more

Since it sounds like only 3 cars are up for the fastest car crown, I will probably just make one attempt early on and see if I can run faster than a 10.80.

And then see if Old Blu or the Lil Fridge can beat my time.

Then I'm gonna dial it back or bypass the blower & run CCC the rest of the day.

Well, I really want to join in on the fun, But my car is just not fast enough to put money down against you screamers!!! I will be going for a best time on Saturday though. Gonna take some weight out of the car, and see if I can get to the mid...11's. But that in no way can compete with you 10 second guys. If the format were different I would be in for sure. Saturday should be fun.

So lets keep the format but open it up to the Quick eight of our group. King of the hill type afair? I have not been king and do not expect to be but lets give bragging rights

Your claim to fame will be your position in the final eight of the day?

If we had eight we could pay out at $20 each could be the top four.
1st $80
2nd $40
3rd/4th $20 each

ANy one else ?

That is real tempting. But I'm going to play this one by ear.

I don't have a cage and I'm not used to this car running on nitrous........so if I get used to the 100hp jets, I'm sure I will have already been warned to slow down or not spray. So it would be useless for me to put in the bigger jets and try and compete with you guys.

Yeah, Barb sends her love to us again. She more or less said we can do whatever we want in time trials, but the day is full. Why do we go there?

So how could we work this? Could we just try to line up in staging lanes behind whoever you want to race & see if they let us run against each other? If we got 3 time trials, that should pretty much do it....

I'll be there. You guys need to do this heads up racing BEFORE the bracket race! Otherwise you'll be waiting around for hours after you are eliminated!

Seriously, the handlers will let you pair up. Just get in the same line.
