Does your wife know how much it's going to cost if you blow the engine running nitrous?
Glad your happy for now, James.

Great times! Did you use the NOS shot in every gear?

James Congratulations.
Did the guy's at the track know or ask if you were part of our group? Or did they just let you run, no questions asked.

They didn't ask any questions.
The tech guy old guy with beard and glasses said all I could do was 12.0 without 5 point and roll.
After my first 11's run they said not to go faster than 11.8 or they would ask me to stop for the night.
If I could have brought my 60 foot time down to my normal 1.92 I would have been kicked.
That would have been nice but alas I couldn’t do it.
Maybe next time.

Next time you go tell them you are part of our group. My deal with management is, you guy's that are
participants of the Corvette Challenge are allowed to run 11.50 even at T&T. They just check the points for your name on the list as proof.
