Damn you beat me to the post! I was chating with Craig on the drive home; he also smoked a bike

He knows his launch is much to be desired; but thats okay, we knew what we were getting ourselfs into. My only regret is those kids not coming up with more money! I wanted to make some cash tonight!!

Lol! Yet, many overlook this obvious red flag.

It was great meeting you!!!

That race was ridiculous. I am completely incapable of launching my car and, yet, I agreed to run a slicked down car from a dig that cuts 1.3 60 foot times . . . . and I give him the jump. I bogged off the line while he opened up 7-8 cars on me. It was comical. By the time I recovered from the bog and got going, I had a ridiculous amount of space to make up. I was probably going 20+ miles per hour faster than him when I blew past him.

No more races from a dig. If I go from a 5-10 mph roll, I don't have to deal with bogging, nor recover from a bogged start, and I am quickly in my sweet spot. I will only do rolling starts from now on.

I ran a bike on the way home and, starting from a roll, I owned him.

Thats an understatement. My launch was, and is, pathetic (I need Sharkey to drive my car -- he is the master at launching a Tip). I bogged, then fell flat, before I could recover and begin moving forward. With his slicks, 1.3 60 foot, and the jump (what was I thinking), the start was just plain stupid. I have never had to come from so far behind. Fortunately, when I finally got going, my MPH was so much faster than his that I blew past him like a freight train.

Yes, he goes by Mojo. I told him about this thread. (which has now been officially been turned into a street race thread)

Oh joy, Thursday today. Those who were there last night at that parking lot next to the gas station, same meet goes on at the same time; however, 10x more amounts of cars are showing up.

Craig informed me about this meet but wasn't able to attend. Will and I have known each other for about 2 or 3 years ever since i had my 03 Cobra. Last time I saw Will was when we hooked up the cars on the 210 awhile back. Very Nice guy. I will send him a message.


Nice to meet you M Powered.
