so did the guy lift? miss 3rd? or just the extra weight from the AWD made that much of a distance...what does 7 tenths equate to on the street? 3 lengths? 1 length?

now the interesting part is we end up getting drunk and my buddy with the 03 CL-S thinks his car's fast and was willing to put 100$ on it. best 2 out of 3 races (1 dig giving him a length) a 40 roll and an 80 roll. since we were drunk and on top of that it was hailing, we obviously postponed the race. i'll try to get the rape on video.

i dont drink and drive i dont drink and drive i dont drink and drive
I meant to ask you earlier TugBoat, where did this all go down?
