Tx2k15 (ba02ss)

Peter and crew did an amazing job orchestrating the event! Even with one full rainout day it was a blast. I wanted to post up some pics and give props where they are deserved. Thanks to Chris Delgado and D3 Performance Engineering for staying with the car and helping with the tune throughout the weekend, Late Model Engines (LME) for one solid bad *** MF LSX 427 that seems to hold everything that I can throw at it, Century Transmissions for a solid 4L80e trans that's holding the power and shifting on point, Madman for his suspension magic, and all of my friends and family that helped out the entire weekend. I ran the Roll Race Nationals in the Super Sport Class and lost out in the semi finals by a fender. I also ran the Drag Race Event in the Street Car Class and made it to the semifinals and lost out to Voodoo Racing out of Vegas. The best part is that I rolled the car off of the trailer and took the kids to school the morning after I got home. Now I'm gearing up and looking forward to some bad *** racing at the Texas Invitational next month!

Wheel stands with no wheelie bars is bad *** especially when they are that straight.

We put a little too much on the launch control during qualifications, made some adjustments, came back and put that Mustang back on the trailer in the second round of eliminations.

You deserve it, Kevin. You've had your ups and downs and never lost faith, just kept at it. Looking to see what it does when ya'll get the 60'ft dialed in completely.

Obviously.. I was curious if there where qualifications, certain events you have to run previously, where to sign up etc. You don't just sit at home and wait for someone to call
You up and say hey "your invited"
