Thanks for the compliments guys. It was a fun event with minimal oil downs.

Congrats to Marc for winning the Nissan Infinity Bracket Race

Thanks Marc. The wife's Q50 made 12 passes that day between the import domestic (semi's) and Nissan shootout. Best pass was 13.68...deep staged!

Marc: "Umm, no, I don't, umm, I don't think they were uhh, giving any money out this time. At least none that I could see."

Wife: "Hmmm, sounds a little odd for such a big event, I'm going to call the track in the morning."

Marc: "Oh, you mean the prize money?! Ooooh yeah, they gave me some winnings as well, I was just about to give it to you, I must have misunderstood what you meant before."
