Well, I should have done better but I am happy with my 8.41. It was the fastest I have ran. I cleaned the rubber off the fenders this morning and it should have been more. I was not getting the tires hot enough.

Oh, and we already know the roll racing results between me, txhotboi, and bmxer8699.

Oh yeah, all three of us know that you were pulling on me. I don't dispute that. I was just happy that I put up that good of a fight. I don't run spray although there are times I wish I had it, like when I had a run with a Contenental GT. It would have been nice to just waste him.
