Question St. Louis...?

OK everybody that went, how did you do?

Sal, now that it is over are you going to tell your secret mods you've been working on?

Hi Wayne!
The gualifing times for all of those at St.Louis were posted. I don't know there best times. There was a Christy with a Lightning that qualified at I believe a 13.53 ET. There were also several other names from this board that I did recognized that had some very nice low 13 qualifing times (like real low). Lets see who ran the best.

Hey Y'all

It's me Just got home from St Louis. Jeff and I managed to make it to semi finals where we lost the 1st and 2nd positions to 2 other drivers who I didn't know in Gen 1s. It was a KILLER weekend though. Made lots of friends, got to meet a bunch of the board and NLOC, and when I went over to take pictures with Jas' 7 sec L he let me sit in it, hooked up the steering wheel, and even started it up and let me romp on it once. I could have gone without placing at all and that would have made my weekend. It was awesome. Hope to see everyone out next year.
Much Love
CA

Hey Everybody,
The wife and I had a great time in St. Louis, we have Saturdays first round qualifying of all the L's on video. We met a lot of L drivers and I learned a little more on what to do to my bolt. I would definately go again and probably try to race.

See some pictures of WFC, link posted on RobG's WFC topic. Christy and Jeff S ran great races, even if they were in white trucks!

So, Bob, how did that white tailgate look?

That's back-to-back semi-final finishes for me... always a bridesmaid, never a bride!!

Both classes were won by NLOC members so I'm out some contingency money! Couldn't make me happier, though!

Bob ^5. I have some new pictures too. Just got them back. I got in about 130 this morning. Cut 40 minutes off my drive hehe Only got pulled over ONCE on the way home...still no tickets though. What a great weekend. I woke up yesterday morning and was almost lost not having to be at the track and not being anxious to race.

Thumbs up

PFA,
Things could not have been better, My L was running great thanks to PSP. I know from experience that for me to run those kind of times in that kind of weather, I have a 12 sec. truck here. I plan on finding out at the local track with Johnny L on fri. night.

I must admit though, the top qualifiing speed was posted wrong, I ran a 104.58 m.p.h.
