Well I'm just telling you what I saw, you know since I actually had my car there and all.
Maybe next year I will just fly there so I can talk a big game from the passenger seat of someone's ride like you

The night time runs are from what ever speed till you run out of room or there is a clear win. The 60-130 racing is done at the track and night runs are done on the highways in "Mexico".

Got my first supra kill. Was only on a 100 shot to. He was making 650rwhp. He raced my buddy first on low boost then saw me come up and turned it up, did not work out for him. But he was a cool dude and gave me BIG props haha. And I even got a GSXR 750 still do not know how I managed that but ill take the win, he gave me a dollar as well.
It would have been better if it was like last year with almost no cops. I really did not wanna end up in jail so I played it safe, but by doing that did not get as many runs in as I wanted to. And corvette8189 wish I would have rolled out with you guys but got caught up on the highway and the runs took longer than expected.
I ended up being 7-5 so not to bad for cam only and some NOS.

I only went out on Friday night when I got back in from vacation. Tried to hook up with 8189 but he took his sweet *** time getting over to where the non-leo runs were going on 
. Only ran one out of towner (blown C6 from san antonio I think) and drug his ***. Then my muffler came off while racing a GSXR (tied) so I went on home. I didn't even go near the west side. Kept hearing how much pork there was over there.

I'll admit it does sound shifty. I wish the C6 exhaust bolted up like the C5's do, the C5 has a much better design. The C6 is a slip fit from the over-the-axle to the muffler and the clamp I had on there had buggered up threads towards the end so it seemed like it was tight but it wasn't. It had come loose before but never fallen off like this.
