I ended up running the SRT later. It was no slouch for sure. Nick, did he call you out or the other way around? I still don't get how that whole thing got set up.

bet you are just glad to have the car back... Im glad I didnt bring the car out then if you didnt race. Have to flush the radiator out this week and see if the oil comes back. I have high hopes that it won't.

He wanted to run luke I Guess bc of the rear wheels but he wouldn't go from a dig. Then he asked me bc my car was there. He told me stage 3 with bolt ons. I was ahead till about 105-110 every race

Said he turned it down to 23lb before getting to the meet. Wonder what he turned it up to before leaving. Cause it definitely held it's own from 70-150ish. Ended up blowing an oil feed and breaking an axle shaft. He had to pull over before we could exit. Messaged them VIA FB to make sure everything was cool and offer help if needed. Ended up having it towed shortly after. Told me he was just over 550 after running. Was fun!

I've got videos of most of the runs, I need to get them off the gopro. And its a good thing I didn't run him, the car would hit the rev limiter and fall on its face between every shift while I was on it.
It was good finally meeting some of you guys, I'm looking forward to a track day.
