Where are all the times this year?

We're getting to almost August and haven't seen any fast times run this year. Where are all of you guys and your high horsepower kits? Just sitting around waxing them?

I would have bet on seeing another 9 this year, but nothing...

waiting for the 3rd clutch... seems like too many companies promise the world yet none have delivered... the current one has been delayed twice... go figure.
The car did run 149.3 mph though....

No, I switched to a twin disk from Clutchmasters... it was supposed to hold.
I spent so much money and time on all this... sucks... too bad Im not a tuner so I could write it off...

Unfortunately, due to my work schedule, I haven't had a chance to any track rentals since I've been home. Since 60-130 times are a lot easier for me to get, I've at least gotten a few of those recently.

If I don't attend a track rental by October of this year, it'll have to wait until I return home from my deployment in April.
