Atta boy Buddy! Keep yer foot in it you big pansy, we want to see 165! You're only a push off the track to an insurance writeoff...

Seriously though, be safe and have fun!

How much motion lotion is left in that drum of fuel? For the love of God man, don't run out!!!!
I look forward to today's numbers. It is 11 degrees Celsius here and I can't imagine you're much warmer where you are. The Red Beast should run real sweet today bro.

Buddy,

Did Brad (Acrophora) make it there?

With your driving skills and your car, it should be quite the lethal combo.

Have fun!

Had a great day and was never passed in run group A the fastest group.

I will try to post pics and video tonight.

Someone told me a guy I passed in a 997 turbo said "He is faster in the corners but I should stay with him down the straight" NOT I blew by him down the straight, he was quite suprised!

Today was my first day using a full erp solid rear link/control arm setup. -3.3fr/-3r camber on ra-1's. The difference in handling is amazing with all the rubber out. Basically like riding on rails now. Fun, fun, fun.
Waved Buddy on by at the beginning of the front straight, he was smoking! Stayed right behind him till the back jump but kept losing power. Was hoping it was the cold weather/ecu adjusting causing the intermittent power loss/rich afr's but it didn't get better. Left early and the car is back in the shop where it just came from.
Checked out the street rod nationals in Kalamazoo instead, 3000+ cars, pretty fun.
