Nice times Jim. Look forward to even faster times as you add mods. Beautiful G8.

Went back out tonight to HRP and the track was hooking a lot better.
Made only a single pass and ran 11.5 @ 119mph
They told me not to go that quick again until I had rollbars, so I just called it a night and went home...I was happy to run that quick.

Actually quite a few guys, both toward my age and way younger, wanted to talk about the car and it's performance. I know on one run, I ran a 12.6 something and the video shows the timer board indicated a 12.teen. The same thing happened to one of my buddies in his GTO. Maybe that's what really impressed them.

Nice car, Old Goat. I saw you out there this weekend. I ran a blue G8 last year and was curious if this is you.

It may have been, probably was. The video shows it was posted on 3/12/10 and my records show that I was out there on 3/12/10, plus the wheels appear to be GXP wheels. I ran a couple of 13.0 runs and one 13.teen run that night and I was bone stock at that time.

Probably was, didn't even look at the date. Figured it was last year. Sorry for the annoying commentary.
