btw, im not saying who i think won, because i wasnt there, thats just my "analysis" of the situation. as in thats me looking at it from both points of view.
i was in the camaro, at 100mph the camaro was well out front. end of story.

Yeah i admit my car is slow. lol I had a blast and somehow got into the A main FINALS against the Firehawk. From what i hear from others in the pits, is that he only beat me by a 1/2 car length or less. I ran the fuck outta my car, next week i am planning on going a little more "balls to the wall" so make sure to come out! As far as all the crap on the car, one of my friends told me he would give me 20 bucks to put his name on it so i figured "why not go all out and make it look like even more of a POS?" if i hit the wall what am i out? i guess it was more of a bet than anything. How were my runs anyways? be truthful please....not asking for any kind of dumb remarks.


I got lucky

dont be suprised about making it into the finals. its all about how the set you up in lane positioning and who you run against. last year i ran out there ever week and had nothing but a stock crx with some rims and suspension... i made it into the second round of the september finals (the overall race) before it got rained out. its all just about having the balls to drive the piss out of your car, and then just getting lucky and getting put against cars to suck/spin.
