You forgot # of times you ran N/T wed-fri j/k

I was top side fri night on your last run and I have to say it kinda freaked me out alittle watching you drive off into the dark with that BBQ you had going under the hood.

Im glad your okay that looked like one wild ride.

The police escort sounds interesting
Be Safe

Yeah, I saw fire streaming back looking through your rear window as you went down the track, that looked a bit hairy. Adding that up, was it a bad weekend or a good one?

Please elaborate on your weekend.

That was the first time I have seen any of these cars in person.
I only saw the 240 go down the track once, and that was it's final pass. I was around half-track getting a drink of water and some mosquito spray.

Looked like a hairy ride that could have gone much worse.

Glad to hear it wasn't that bad.

The car was impressive...in fact, I was impressed by yours and a few others.

No, the flat was on the truck towing the trailer. It was at 3am Saturday while driving to GA for the PRO race which I was disqualifed from for going too fast.
