Must have been an interesting dinner indeed.

Did they put you in the corner for a reason?

High Risk's truck got hurt on Friday... I wasn't there, but they said it had something to do with getting a little too happy with the happy gas and burning off all the spark plugs. Maybe a bent valve from plug debree.

I'm not sure which Bolt had the fastest ET, hopefully everyone's got their slips and will be able to post it up...the modified yellow Ford Ranger was running 11.8x's with its Nitrous, that was the fastest truck I saw... There were some 7.6x Stangs as well.
I think there was one Bolt running 12.7x... Barom was between 24-29 when I was there with temps being between 74-82...

On Friday night, I'm just wondering what happened with the Red L that was doing well until midtrack. Ran 16.0
Sunday, anybody else see the Pro 5.0 class Mustang that did a wheel stand, rolled over and caught fire? Glad the driver got out ok but too bad the fire burned for over 10 minutes.

99 SVT Bolt,

That may have been me on Friday. I redlighted, and then aborted the run when I saw the scoreboard. I was just being petulant.

Hey Guys,
I had a great time myself, only wish I would have run some better times with the new chip.

Thepawn,
It was a pleasure meeting you, next time well have to run that truck of yours with that cool wing Thanks for the PICS, very cool


HIGHRISK,
I noticed that , maybe someday someone will get my name right LOL

99 SVT Bolt,
I believe your talking about the "OUTLAW" car that had the accident. If it were a Pro 5.0 with a 4-link putting it on the bumper, I'd say someone does not know how to set up their chassis. I did see the whole thing, the launch sent the car right on its bumper, it leaned to the right slightly (driver still on the gas) and actually did a little vertical spin, before hitting the wall and landing on its roof sliding down the track. The car did burn for more than 20 minutes, the driver did manage to escape from the opposite side of the car, with minor burns to his body.

BADDOG,
How did you make out on Sunday?? did you add another trophy to your collection?? I am sorry I had to split so early, needed to get back for work early monday morning. See ya soon buddy

Chains,
You missed a great event, you should really try the next meeting.....see ya

Hey Spyro

I couldn't come up with a repeat performance. I redlighted in the third round against some clapped-out Cougar with a 15.90 dial.

It sucked because he had an .800 reaction time, and I would have taken him apart. Oh well. Team Redlight strikes again!

Glad to hear everyone had a great time, and real sorry to miss everyone. But 10 hrs. of time and a half saturday and 10 hrs of double time sunday was to much to pass up. Catch up with everyone at a later date.
