Congrats to both of the RPM cars looking for 10s and really finding them. One ran a best of 10.67 and one a best of 10.58.
nice damn job.

Thanks for the compliments.. yeah the first pass I had been messing with the EMS and the car didn't like the settings... tried to stall up and it just wasn't gonna happen, RPMs were stuck at 2700, I sat there for a while praying it'd work if i held it, but it wasn't gonna happen so I just let it go, bogged terribly. I fixed the issues in the pits and went back for the second try, that one was a idiot mistake on my part partially.. I thought he had fully staged so I went ahead and stalled up, car started to pull through the brakes bad and I was like "oh shit, I gotta let it go if i want a chance at saving this pass", I paniced, and let off the footbrake, forgetting to drop the E-brake.. after the car kinda bogged it's way a ways out, I realized my stupid mistake and dropped the E-brake and the car got moving, my dumb ass actually also didn't put it fully down either.. I don't think it made a difference though, but on the return road I realized it was still up a couple clicks.. oh well that's what I get for being rusty after being absent from the track for 4 years. Even though I got there late it was a lot of fun though, gonna try to make it back soon once I figure out how to not pull through the brakes on the line. Pisses me off because it worked fine when I tested it on the street a couple weeks ago. Might just have to go to a bigger turbo that doesn't spool too fast

some of you all shoulda said hi.. I saw Devan, and saw shue roll by tuning a car, and thought I recognized a couple other cars there too.

I was there but I didn't run my car which was parked over near the bleachers close to the concession stand. I did pull off a 14.01 @ 100mph in the '03 Altima I was driving.

Def a good night.

red DSM that didnt post times was nasty. think you right around 10's if not lower. Am i correct?

RPM car repped like always.

Keebler started to run outta vtec sauce. but still was consistent. good job.

bikes where stupid fast. that one guy w/ the wheel stands must have bawlz of steele.

Sure marcus can cut some more time off w/ his car. BTW I saw you wanting that Vette on 64. lol.

Supra Scoot. good job first time out.

I missed the fire starter in the staging lanes.
Yellow stang moved the fuck out.

Slinky was funny as hell. "it's my strong arm."

5 fords broke, 2 chevys, one dodge. one honda was oozing vtec on the track between shifts. lol.

The old lady in the pink shirt was pissed and made a few ppl lol. thanks a lot roscoe and hooker.

scooby scott making the run and passing the bleachers w/ the ice cream song was good for a laugh.

Frost when you gonna run your whip out there?

Richard. lol. im not even getting into that beyond janky ass motor mount. cant wait to see the boost and ground control on it.

def. a good night. I think i might go out to the track more often.

Marcus. not to trying to start anything. But Sean K. "s14" said he would walk you badly. lol

Something like that

Maybe next time we should wear nametags? haha... If I can get my launch sorted out I might be back next time... If not I think we are bringing a friend's car so I'll be there at least as a spectator next time.. didn't get to see much tonight, was in the pits the entire time I was there. And congrats to the RPM guys that hit 10s! How did everyone else do?
