Good luck and have some fun for me too.

Steve and I represented :chris , two sinister black 'vettes driven by two old unshaven wisenheimers. We saw Tony (Z O SICK) out there too.

Nice mornin', but everyone had to wait and wait for all the little tykes in the junior dragsters and some track clean up. I only got two passes before I had to book. Anyway, we both ran personal bests on the same pass against each other. I crushed him at the tree and it hooked, didn't see him until about half track when the little f***er came walking by me and WAVING BYE-BYE to me on his way to an 11.873. Bastage! :devil

Anyway, I finally cracked into the 12's with a 12.990, so you C6'ers know what's up. :lol

Mary Lou came along for moral support, so there should be video evidence shortly. :thumbs

Sorry to steal your thunder Steve-a-reno, but that waving stunt has to cost you somehow! :jive:

Sorry for waving as I went by Dean. :lol I couldn't resist. :devil

You certainly treed me, but I was trying to get my RPM just right.

Your car runs really good and it sounds great too. Thanks for suggesting we go. I had a blast. :thumbs Only bummer was that I got rained on at the track and all the way home. :toetap

Here's the evidence. I think it's cool we both got new personal bests on this run. Note there are no 60 ft times... someone wiped out the electronics last night.

Hey, "Waves-with-one-hand-while-shifting-with-the-other" :toetap, you can call it trying to get your rpm just right, but we all know that it's a good thing you got all that horsepower. :devil Come on tax-man, I need good news! Psssst...... :eek

I know Marylou got this run on video cuz I saw it on that gizmo that's smaller than my cellphone. Email it to me, PLEASE! I bet it sounds awesome! Your cam rocks! :thumbs Thanks for going with me, we shore stuck oot amidst all those Rustangs and Neons! :lol

Edit: P.S. I got rained on too :huh , had to drive over past Maryvale :eek to get my kid.

We stuck out because we were averaging 1½ seconds quicker. :lol Although I did see a Cobra bang an 11.1@130 :eek

And yes, the lovely Marylou got a vid for us....

HERE'S THE VIDEO

It runs choppy for me if I just play the video, but works ok if I run the slideshow. So if it runs choppy for you try the slideshow.

BTW, Steve is a kind, mild-mannered dude....he's just got lead in his foot, alot of it. :burnout:thumbs
