Default Finally won something...

My car was dead on in the morning event(Show and Go)and so were my reaction times. I hit multiple .50? lights and won my class by .0078.... It was the best race for me ever. I wish I could have made it to the CC in the afternoon, but had a wedding to go to.....Can't wait for the August 16th......

Tony

:cheers: Way to go! Did you get a BIG trophy? What years were in your class? I was beaten easily by our eventual class winner (68 - 73). MJ

I think he was in my class 74-79. That was you in the red car right? If so, you just beat the 2 in a year row Champion.
