I had a great time. I really miss going to the track and running it. Can't wait to go again and hopefully have new wheels and better tires.

We left at 10. I've never seen any track that bad in my whole life. Not sure x275 track prep is gonna work with street tires. Hopefully you guys with slicks were running good.

Track wasn't that great or at least I thought. My car was spinning 1st and 2nd and finally grabbed in 3rd. The white boss was running slicks and he was cutting 1.5's 60ft

Nice seeing everyone. Best cars to watch were JShoot vs Trans Am and also that pewter S10. Worst car all night was that "Cross Talk" Firebird.

For sure, I made 3 hot laps in the car to find out the clutch,rpm, ect. Car was warm, clutch was warm, 119 on 3rd pass is pretty good. Car should run in the 122-124 without hot lapping it and better air

That Firebird was sad. The run he had against me was a 12.3 @ 108. Lol

More bark than bite for sure.

That run would have been faster for me but I ran out of 4th and kept my foot down instead of going into 5th. I should have made the shift.

It was an awesome turnout! Good to see so many people come out for the festivities. My best run was 12.5 at 115 blowing the tires off in first. Traction alone would have got me close to the 11's.

Definitely cool seeing so many people out there. We need fucking nametags with our screen names or something. I don't know who half of you are on the board.

Track prep was great for slicks. I ran a 12.2 @ 111 with a 1.66 60' time. I'm not sure why I trapped so low. I think I may have let off before the traps. I was having issues with my new clutch, so I was distracted focusing on that. I'm hoping to be in the 11's next time out there.

Yeah, there was definitely a lot of new faces. I was all over the place trying to talk to as many people as possible. Sorry we didn't get to hang much. I saw a couple of your passes. Your car was making some crazy noises on the shifts!
