[QUOTE=REDGAR]I think Mark ran no NOS last year in http://corvettechallenge.info/2005pro8-3.php and ran 11.229

On all motor I can get to 11.00 - 11.01 when I tune it right. Worry, not, no car = no racing for me this weekend.

Sorry to hear that Mark - we'll tuck away a national shirt for ya.

I'm looking forward to the banquet.

I sure do hate to throw the point(s) away but I don't think there will be a full field tomorrow so I won't be alone.

Figures that the one time I might be able to steal a round in the Pro-8 I have no car. I don't know if I'll even be ready for the first Pro-10. But then again, anything can happen.

Ok RobZ what are the odds?

I agree. I'd rather race someone and lose then get a point for not racing.

Cool, that will be perfect for the 11.0 index that we'll start next year.
