Alan took some pics and vids - got at least one of Viets runs (his best one) - he was on target to get in 12s but made us all realize how he got his user name by hitting the rev limiter (sorry bro, had to say it ) - he had a good run though... BTW, I’ve hit the rev limiter far too many times, so I’m definitely not making fun…

My goal was to get into 13s... was three thousandths of a second from doing that 14.002 @ 101.xx

It rained on & off a bit in the morning... shutting down the track for an hour or so at one point... they had to re-prep the track and it just wasn’t hooking up for any of us.

Viet would have got in the 12 if he could hook and get decent 60'... I could of got in 13s if I could have hooked and got decent 60'...

I'll let the other guys tell what they did...

I was great seeing everyone! At first Alan and I thought it was going to be only us… it was nice to have Viet, Darren, Vlad and his friends and a couple other VQs (sorry, I forgot your names guys ) all show up! There were 9 VQs running (I think) plus one spectating (is that a word?)… good turn out actually – good times (frustrating, but good)

I defenetly had fun watching u guys run... I cracked in to 14s due to the misfortune to my car earlier last week. My worst run in CSW was 15.2 @ 90 mph.

Funniest comment of the day:

Me: Vlad, how was your last run
Vlad: I'm almost ready to crack into 16s


Sorry your car wasn’t optimal brother... next time

Also, the chick at staging wouldn’t let me run you when you were driving your buddies 07+ and I left after that run 'cause I had to get to Sean’s (sxexcx) to fix ground wire routing (I was tiered of chasing the elusive 13.99 anyway.

Alan has a vid of your first run (better ET)… taken from the far end of the stands (towards the finish line)… much like that one, there is a long stutter going into 2nd (I thought something happened and you shut it down – then zoom!)…

Bump the limiter to 7200 or 7500 and come out in Dec – I’m gonna get into 13s and you will hit 12s!

370Z dude! Or Challenger... Those are the 2 I'd be lookin at (or maybe 335i)
I might just get an old muscle car... the dude with the ezy9s plate with the frame that said "On 91 Pump Gas" ran 9 something at the end
