As far as JL, I have no problem personally with him, and have talked with him many times at cecil, but I think what he did was crap. He "qualified" #1 with no intention of being a serious contention in the actuall race (he didn't even show up) while others are in the points
He showed up to use that day for a test and tune, so whats your point? Why do you think what he did was "crap"?
For those that think you have to dial back, keep in mind that the previous Wed before the FFW event, JL went 3 10.20's in a row with no traction problems and no cooldown, to its only a matter of time before you see a couple of Lightnings bracket racing in the 10's all day long, and they wont come from Freehold NJ.
How hard is it to comprehend that you should be able to run a string of 10's just as easily as you run a string of 12's? My man JJ is a consistant 11.0 truck in race trim and has run back to back to back 11.0's on a hot day with a hot motor, so why not do that more often at an actual race?Oh well I guess this is a dead subject, but dont be suprised when I give you a "told ya so" post here in the future.
Hang loose dudes.
Later...

If YOU do it then you can Say "I told ya So" Until then. I Don't think so, because I have run 10s and I have Won Races running 12.5s. NOT YOU.
Until YOU step up to the plate and lay out the time and MONEY then SHUTTY.
I am sick of getting my ***** busted from somebody from the outside looking in. Its a lot easier to talk about it then acually do it.
I have put in my time (along w/ a lot of others, JDM people,JL people , PSP people and others) and money. I am at events , I am doing my part.
I will be the first person to shake the hand of any L owner who wins bracket racing running 10s , whoever it is. And Him and ONLY him (or her) can say , I told ya so.
Stop riding coattails and get to JL, Buy a Built motor, cage your Truck and RACE it. A lot easier typed then done.
