Last time I was at PBIR I had a very unpleasant experience. I don't think I will ever return. Got my a$$ handed to me in the final by some guy in a silver vette.

I was at Lakeland chatting to a IRR racer (Jim in the wagon) this past weekend and he told me "your" buddy in the silver vette was kicking butt at the IHRA event.

Good luck as I think I'm heading a bit closer and going to Bradenton.

I tell her nobody hates winter more than a guy who owns a race car

I know both winners of last week's events ~ Rob is double-tough, winning multiple races at every track he competes at, and while Ryan is still learning the ropes, he is doing well, and one of the funniest guys I've ever met
