In The first round, the guy I raced had a .956 light, was dialed in at 10.02 & ran 12.30 (a 3 sec package) & I had a .487 RED :mad & lost..

If you did not red light, I think you might have beaten him :D

Pat, that has got to be the closest race EVER.

Scan the slip if you can I want to post it on the Challenge Page to give an example of a close race.

A guy in my Impala club said he won his class, I guess it was the slower one. I am happy to see that an American car did good. Sucks to hear about you guys losing. I didn't even go near the track yesterday, instead I went to New Brunswick to hang with some college girls, play guitar, take some pictures(i'm in a band with one of them), and eat a Fat Cat(those sandwiches are the best)yeah my life's tough lately. Any cute ricer girls there? I'm sure that they were looking good. Talk to you all later, and i'm going to Maryland this weekend, the rear should be broken in by then, so I should be able to race at one of those tracks down there. Not sure which one yet, but i'll get some pics. :cheers:

I still wonder why??? :confused:

I dont get it. :(

I'm not all that serious of a racer but I just don't understand why someone wants to flog a honda down the drag strip. :nonod: I know, Speed isnt all that matters but sheesh.



I just dont understand the grocery getter gone racin mentality!

Well, according to the kids that hang out in front of my high school who try not to stare at my vette but can't resist doing so... "Its maaaad phat, I wanna hook my shizznit up like that....yo. HOLLA!" I think they are trying to say its cool or something, its all about trying to look cool and fit in.

What were you racing against?
