Super cool about having the entire family there, and wise choice staying off-site!

You should go to rockfalls before winter. Get some more runs in and try to dial in your launching. Hope you can make some more passes before winter and get that beast into the 10.50s

Car looked great up there man! Was really fun to watch and listen to. The traction looks tough honestly. Made me sad I didn't have my car up there, but staying in the condo, allowed me to drool over every pass lol. Offsite is very peaceful and glad they all got to enjoy the event!

OH! PS don't forget to the big minigolf Pirate's course next door, they would have a blast.

Damn didn't even see ya there. Cool you got to see me run, how'd it look going down the track? Sounded like a gun shot everytime I shifted lol!

I gotta find the video, but I have an in car video of my first pass of the trip on Friday. It was next to Nate's pesky little black civic that completely left me in the dust :) Can't believe I lined up next to him on my first pass haha, he made me look sooooo slow! But if you read this Nate, thanks again for all your pointers throughout the weekend, and good chatting with ya! Cute kids too!!

Sounds like a fun time! Maybe next year I'll bring the family also. Would make the chances of going higher.

2wd traction is all about seat time and trial and error. There are some tricks as well to try.

A set of real drag tires would make a huge difference. But the class I was running in, I can't run slicks. If I can figure out how to hook on drag radials, pretty sure I would have been very competitive in my class. Well, that is until they kick me out for running too fast lol. I did get spoken too after that pass by tech.

Yes thanks, it was nice to meet you in person. A few small changes you will be getting kicked out for going 135mph!!!!!

Good stuff!! Offsite on lake cabin action is definitely the way to stay up there! No need for that BIR nonsense.

Last year at pg it was super calm at night. I remember the past 2 years it was crazy at night with people riding pit bikes and other toys around. But last fall it was quiet and calm at night. No crazy stuff which was nice for some of to sleep.

At 135 you need to have some safety stuff and a license I believe. Since at 135 mph your suppose to be able to run a 9.99.

Yea the pops were funny, but that said, the chassis looks calm and controlled actually. That civic and a few others were roasting several awd cars even.
