Any news? I heard there was rain. I saw one pic of a car on fire (that didn't look good).

It was pimp... Even If I couldn't break into the 12s. MN had a pretty weak showing at the shootout.

Lots & lots of broken parts everywhere.

Yeah, it was a really sad MN showing. I coulda brought my POS and been the fastest Mn car there.

Brent wasnt there, niether was shep. I was disapointed that the quick 16 only got one run through the feild. They wasted a lot of time, I think they shoulda canned the slower classes or run them last when the weather started looking bad. They were running the Q16 a second time when Marco made a mess of the track. I couldnt see that he laid down anything but they decided to take 30 minutes to clean the track anyhow. It rained before they were done.

I think 150mph was the highest trap speed all day, run by a grey 1G, very clean car but very much a sleeper.

Worth going, I'll be going next year but in a DSM for sure. Preferably in mine.

I broke twice.

Marco blew his rear pumpkin completely out of the car at the 1000" mark.

Jeff Elliott had the engine fire.

Sean Ivey had the gray car that did 150 mph.

An EVO II ran 9.6.

Curt Brown's EVO went 11.5 on a stock turbo and slipping clutch.

There was actually some cute girls there.

The party at the Econodump was beyond words.

Yeaaaaaaaaaa........The stuffed bear suit!(Econodump Party)

The SO Rocked!

Buschur Racing is a lot smaller than I expected.

Yes....MN had a very weak showing. Mainly due to broken cars and bad luck.

I will post some pics as soon as I can figure out how to use the image upload thingy.

The track OWNED Marco...

1-Missed 1st rond of qualifing,

2-Shatered x-case at the line on 10.25pass,

3-On 2nd pass he broke the driveshaft in 2 places, pitched out the pumpkin at the 1000' mark, sprayed down the track with gear oil, and about died if the drive shaft ate through any more of the floor. The DS chewed a hole the size of a chalupa in the floor pan of the car directly under the Nitrous bottle.

Marco said that he now holds the 2G broken parts record. Previousely held by me.........I'll get him next year. Or is Steve ever gets a 2G I might have to worry a little.

So did David expand to anyone as to why his tube car is for sale? I haven't seen any updates on it since it was announced back in July that the car and trailer were for sale.

I'm sure he wants to concentrate on the evo now, since that is what is going to make him the money.

I dont see how making his 2G faster is going to do anything for him. That and he'd be falling all over himself trying to keep up with Brent while paying to keep his other two drag cars running.

He said he doesn't have the time or energy to keep up with everyone else in that class. It is just too competitive to do it part time.

Looks like somebody on tuners snapped a pic of the old beater.

Sweet, there's a picture of our room, 117 at the Econodump. I'm sitting down behind the guy in the yellow shirt.

I could probably find this if I looked through the numerous pictures online, but did Slowboy have their RWD Eclipse at the Shootout?

Not running, or even on a trailer that I saw.
