Well, I went 5 rounds and got to the semi-final of brackets and redlighted and only got third place... , but I had fun and this was my first real event so I dont feel too bad but I'm still kicking myself in the *** for redlighting...Zed

Oh yeah, Linda Watson did a hell of a wheelstand and cracked the oilpan on the way back down but they got it back together and she got to make another pass later on...

My brother called me at 6 or 7 while I was on the dyno and said that CJ ran a 9.5 on 1 kit.. Trying to spray the 2nd stage. Sean went a 8.7 or something. Lydia went a 9.1 @ 145 or something and is calling me a ***** (See you soon!) Icon Autosports went a 8.5..

I also heard from someone, not my brother because he didn't see it that the Ohio Boys went a 7.9x supposably.

I gave up last night at 3:30 when the car was not acting right on the dyno and none of my tach readings were working, so the nitrous would not work.

the 8.54 or something like that at 147 mph was IMPRESSIVE! Hats off to everyone.


To everyone that missed the afterparty at Dinner. That was a BLAST! Once again, Thanks John

I too witnessed that 8.2 @ 170, I was coming down the return road and had to stop and check out the boards when I saw that land rocket coming...

there weren't any 7 second passes yesterday, not during competition anyways....it was a pretty fun day of racing. once they changed the settings on Lydia's shocks that car was a beast and won her class, CJ's car ofcourse didn't run for ****, Sean went a 8.76, and v6bird was sitting in the stands with us all day drinking bud select. HPE broke the input shaft or something on their glide friday night and didn't get to make any passes yesterday but they had it there anyways. Wormboy's car was there, don't remember what it ran, seems like it was 8.50s all day but that damn car looks KILLER....the Icon car was hauling *** all day and very impressive 8.57, that nitrous record is in serious jeapordy right now...that car was on a hit in the final and the battery died or something like that...

I had allot of fun! Seans car was damn fast... too bad he had to strap another 95Lbs to it to make class restrictions.

I was the only STS car out there.... I real slow in comparrison to those real cars!! But oh well I drove down from Killeen in what I raced and still managed to pull a 11.2 and lifted both my wheels on an STS
