sorry for the call out, but i have to stick up for my import peeps!!!!!!!
I have 2 agree, it actually was fun, a good amount of cars out there but no real problems. Landers needs to lose 40 lbs and he will be in the 9's We got 3 passes in and didn't have to wait forever. The only real problem was after that great Landers 10.04 pass, Super Joe doe's his 10k dump and breaks the rearend on the line, I guess it needed to **** at that time with all the fluid coming out.(LOL had to do it Sharkhouse). We have to see the videos of these 2, the Landers pass and the video of the Shark attack on the line, and there is 1 more video that was made, have to c that one to, get them up boys..

You should know from the plague you all had with the shop vette. Put in hardened half shafts, built tranny, and a rearend. **** a auto, no offense John. unless it's outlaw 10.5 or TT5, I like to row....

Did you all have it 4 wheel aligned after the rearend install?? The old shop vette once Chuck had it done it never broke another rearend. Just my .02 Not saying you don't know what you're doing, just trying to figure out how people like LP's hold together and some don't.
