8.2 is quick, but I would have thought the winner would have been running at least .5 seconds faster than that. I would have looked for at least a 7.5 second pass.

Still, cool...

Marshall: I assume you let motorcycles run. I never really had any interest in drag racing my (or any other) bike, but I'd like to come to the strip sometime and I might as well while I'm there. Are there any regulations regarding motorcycles?

There weren't really all that many imports out there to begin with.. I would hope that more imports will show up when Marshall does it again.. We seriously had a lot of fun and made the trip from Fairfax well worth it..

I qualifed 3rd in the 350 and ended up losing to the del sol due to me red lighting.. (I will say the left lane needs some serious work)

i'll definitely bring the coupe as soon as it's done.i could probably get a few other low 8/high 7 second cars to come too.
it's been at least six years since i last ran at NL-i'd love to check it out again since Marshall has taken over.

awesome, thanks again for coming down.
get that vert sorted! 90mph missing gears/banging the limiter - that thing is gonna be ridiculous on a solid pass.

I'm going to try to set up another quick 8 late august/early september, that should give everyone plenty of time to get their cars straight (including me )

Yeah man.. Shaun just needs some more seat time in it.. That was maybe his 5th or 6th pass where the car is actually making it down the track.. It's definitely got tons of potential though hahaha

We'll definitely come out for the next one.. If a miracle happens then maybe I can show up in my 240.. But I wouldn't get my hopes up lol..

Did you break far into the 8's with the Z? Any mods?
