daves 9 was no gimme....he made like 20 passes...all on his new 255 Hooser Dr's

Capt huff bettered his 11.4 with a 11.33 at 119.7 1.54 60ft i think

deshmidte or however you spell it...I didnt think you were ever going to get it in 2nd

Gary went 10.50s before breaking at 132 i think

RobZ cut some nasty 60fts 1.32 best and driving was insane

Hope I did an alright job with the videos hopefully dave can have them up tomorrow...I just got home from my 4.5 hr ride...I cant believe I resisted racing...peer pressure was tough hahah

I lent Bingo my GTO spares and MH racemaster and he went 10.65 at 141 on a horrid 60ft

Arun went 9.04...as soon as his converter/boost hits....tires dont stand a chance...Arun very nice talking to you; your car is sick!

4drush went 8s right off the trailer

The ricers were impressive...I seen one go 160+ in the 1/4

Another hot rod was mad with his 7.02 at 198....gotta get that 6 i suppose

Jon Cona worked his butt off taking pics they should be good we need to get him our email addy's so he can link us to the pics

Hotwheels nice runs man...10.7s is haulin

Stonabones put on a axle breaking demonstration...his piles of broken axles was impressive....you know you make power when you bring 5 spare axles to the track...ended up cracking the side cover of the diff...wish you luck on the rebuild

RobZ, Kyle, and Gary had fun BSing with you guys...your guys' cars and driving is superb...Im getting a truck next week I promise next time i make the trip I'll have my car behind a Uhaul trailer and will be running it just wasnt the smart thing to do today

Ranger was on his game with the weather equipment as usual and ran his best of the day after 3 hot lapped passes 5 min before the end of the rental. 10.86 I think he ran

Scott sorry to hear of your new engine misfortune hope tommy gets you going asap...FYI scott went 10.90s at 131 on his first pass and cut a 1.61 60ft on his 2nd pass before he aborted the smoke show

Tommy Nice meeting you IIRC you went 10.30s correct?

There was a lot of breakage today between gary splitting his diff and fluid spewing, scott spraying oil, and stonabones axle breaking demo...all this made my temptation to make a pass go away!

Nice to meet everyone thanks to dave for putting this on and for putting up with me for the night...nice meeting your wife and neighbors; super nice people

Pitt hope I fullfilled your text track update requirement haha

Oh yea fartpipe is gay

Had a great time. Nice chatting with a lot of you. Set my PR, still working my 60's down. Seems like whenever i 60' well then i botch the shifts! Was on a hell of a run with a 1.64' 7.392 1/8 ended up missing 3-4 still ran a 11.65 at 115.49. Best towards the end of the day was a 11.66 at 118.95 think i short shifted a few gears just trying to get a clean pass off.

Lots of badass cars. Especially liked 4DRUSH's going sideways staying in it the whole time clicking off some 8s.

Dingo and his crazy mph all day finally got her down in the 10.6 range.

Ranger for all of the advice, hell of a nice guy, can't ask for a more knowledgeable person to have parked next to you! 10.86 to rap up the day not bad at all!

Congrats Dave clicking off a 9.94 i think it was right before they closed up! Thanks for everything today.

Dave did a great job putting this day together. Super turn out with cars from as far as Canada. Great meeting you Arun!

I was very tempted to roll the cruiser up to the lights but a slightly out of balance clutch and few breakages reminded me of the long ride home.

The track looked to be incredibly well prepped and the guys at the track really stayed on top of it. Overall, a great time with some very fast cars and very good drivers.

Thanks again Dave!

Very cool day. Sucked a bit being the slow guy with only 2 bolt-on only LS1s there (Pete, and that freak car of his don't count), but I'll take the 12.09 which was by far my PB. Definitely looking forward to next year with hopefully a much different setup to run.

We were parked in the nose bleed sections. We made 2 1/8 mile hits, 4.72 & 4.70 @ 162/164. We coasted to a 7.53/7.55 on both passes. I was out of the throttle 5 seconds into the run. The track was ok but it definitely could have been alittle better with more track prep. I know it was perfect for the corvette guys. Did anyone get any video of my big wheel stand or pics?
