We did not get he race on video but our first qualification pass was side by side. He ran natural so he had not shot though it does look like I gave him one

Qualifying video
I did have a shot indeed, my light was a .284, yours was a .678
It made for an exciting race as you only won by .0436 !!!!
(You had me by 8 mph.)

I thought I might have had you.
It was a fun race.

That is me racing Alex.

Nice Video.

I had him on the tree, but he came around me.
I was running NA again and got out of it at the 1/8th as I had too all day. (Except in the one NA race against Edgar above.)

My 60' stinks in all of these videos???

I would have really rubbed it in if I had won NA!

Remember? I predicted a quarter second on the tree....
I guess that was conservative!

Edgar, just once, please run in the 12.0 class when A1 is there ....while it does nothing to showcase what either of these two fast cars can really do it could help determine who is the better racer.

Seeing which of you is best at slowing their car down in an attempt to run on the (12.0) money could make for a nice challenge and some interesting racing.

Good point, it can't be too easy (to safely) slow a car down that much and still remain competitive as well.

Looks like we'll just have to ridicule and mock him some more until he gives in and gets that bar.
