Bottom line for me it was gay. The best I could do was 11.5@122. Neither my heart nor my head was in it. It's sad, but I have come to realize that over the last couple weeks the whole "car thing" just isn't doing it for me any more, and no matter what I did I couldn't not get in to racing today. Nor have I really felt like working or driving my car in the last couple weeks.

mara didnt go. john was there, he can post up his times i forgot exactly what he ran. tyler at elite was the only one who really had a good day as far as i remember, he ran a 11.6 somthing in his turbo acura, down from his previous best of like 12.4 at rock falls. glad i went though, fun to watch. there were a lot of 10 and 9 second v8 cars there which made observing fun but noisey.

11.6@121. With only 25psi, either a boost leak, or a bad boost controller. And I ended up letting off before the end of the run, but my last run with a bogged launch I ran an 11.8@122, and did not let off before the end

25psi :gayflag:

My truck pulls a DSM just fine. I was happy with it 100%. Just had a low coolant issue at one point and did some overheating at my parents, cooled it down, filled it up with coolant and water and boom issue good for the rest of the weekend.

Wow, a lot of nice cars, wish I could have been there.
Any idea what that junior dragster ran? I've always wondered how fast they are.

What do the junior dragsters run for engines?

The vids are all finished (i think) PM me your AIM name and I will see if I can send yours to you. MSN messenger works best however, as more often than not I get a firewall error with AIM.
John, I did not run due to the fact that I barely made it to the track. I got my car fixed at the track, but at that point I simply did not feel like racing.

You fucking homos are gay.  Where the hell was everybody last weekend? I had to explain to some fucking high schooler with a MX-3 that I didn't have a 16G and I was running 28-30 psi. A couple of locals thought they were going to wipe the track with me, we'll just say they were a bit surprised.

That sucks. Atleast you made it there and back alright. I wouldn't have raced myself if my car broke on the way there.
