What's up guys? That Honda was freakin' rollin with that 11.9 and backed it up. The Blue WRX was hitting 12.5's all night. Saw Victum's WRX out there too. Met up with Fatboyee with his 4-Pack and Woodrow too.

As for my axle.....man I was trying to hit the 12's but it was not to be. I ran 13.36, 13.18 & 13.01 all @ 108 mph. Then in the first round I was up against a Mach 1. I told myself that I needed to at least hold up the Cobra's honor. So I staged and revved to about 2k's and dumped the clutch. It seemed to hook up then SNAP, CRACKLE & POP! I was I swear I it took me about 15 minutes to roll past the 1/8. I made at least 3 calls on my cell for by the time I stopped rolling! LOL

It's already at the dealership and should be done by Wed.

Overall it wasn't that bad. At least the new crew wasn't as bitchy as last year's crew. They could have made things go a little smoother expecially through tech. Traction was total crap by the end of the night. I didn't get any good times that night and wasn't even consistant!

15.5-15.7 all night long.

I'll say this tho, I didn't lose a single race that night

Didn't even lose to the GTP, I thought I was going to be owned by that thing. I don't know what happened there.

Hope everyone had a good time.

LCR, I am the guy in the black 97 cobra. Good deal on that getting fixed. I know some places inspect the wheel wells for burning rubber and all(They did it to me on my 99 Cobra when i blew my bearings and hub while racing). Lucky they did not find anything on mine, and glad they did not do it to yours. A buddy of mine is the head SVT mechanic at Universal Ford(He had that 2003 cobalt blue lightning that was running 12.40's last night), and his customer blew his cobra motor, and took it elsewhere to be fixed. At 300 miles they checked the wheel wells and saw the tires worn out, and denied his warranty.
Glad you are getting her fixed.

Yea that shit matt did blew me away when I saw it. I bet the slicks and race gas helped out alot though.

The best I saw rob do was a 12.88 and his computer didn't have any juice so he couldn't tune his computer.
