Default Shootout today ---discussion

I had a great time today and thought we had a good turn out. I won 2nd in the quick 8 class. Sean spanked me like only your daddy should! I couldnt 60' for ****...but i think it was like that for everyone so it was equal.
More should enter the races though.....you never know who is going to win...some break....miss a gear...red light...alll kinds of stuff.
I met a few of you guys and that was cool....saw some very nice cars.
Lo-N-Slo ...your car looked so bad ***, i wanted to give you the win before you ever ran. Nice car...get those issues worked out and get back out there.

Chris...hit me up on PM!!

Craig...10.3s all day when i stayed in it. It was spinning alot....out of the groove...hot...i wasnt disappointed in the times but very much so in the 60'. I had a 1.53 but it went down hill after that. Guy that whooped my *** ran 9.1 @ 152!!!! We had a great time.....better than i expected turnout. We need to do name tags though....masking tape and a marker would work.

That truck was haulin *** and not getting traction either.

Oh Craig, i made a pass after i put my street tires on to see what it would do. I had never run it with real street radials.....ran 11.5 @ 134
