Not the first time!
I lost because my car laid down in the middle of the pass, twice.
You like to call it making excuses, I call it a legitimate reason for losing.
Wasn't my fault, the car is inconsistent.
I ran a 10.55 to be the #1 Qualifier.
Then Shawn took it from me with a lower 10.55.
Then I came out and ran a 10.51 and claimed number #1 for good.
(You left that out I see)
Then in round 1 the car laid down twice and wouldn't rev after 5000 rpm???
I was set up to run a 10.45, even in the wind.
This only the second time the car has done this.
The first time was in St. Louis after using the trans brake.
I have not used the T-Brake since.
I can drive around a little wheel spin.
I can't drive around what happen this Saturday.
Grovel if you want, you went out first round too and your car was running fine.

Then you got another gift in round two as Rob-Z was testing and ran a 9.70.
Then when you actually had to race, you lost to Tommy.
But at least you can talk, you are number 1 in points.
(I guess I should have stayed #2 qualifier
)

It's a good thing I didn't mention that you need thick skin, to hang in Ten-Fitty!
(We don't roll with the hurt feelings nonsense.)
As far as your reference above,
1) It figures you would go there.
2) If that's the case you better get out of 11.50 as quick as possible!--

3) I see you are already making excuses, don't be afraid to race with the best...

Your car has already been 10.3s in good air so you might be able to get something done on shear consistency with no fear of breaking out.
