I heard about this from Brian..haha "$100K" and that's all he got? DAMNN. When are you going. I'd like to set up something for like a weekday, perhaps Wed. or so after HH or something. Weekend are bad for me and it's probably more crowded. Let me know, i been waiting to take the G down the 1/4. I might need a couple of you to push it to the finish though

Well, it's only 20 bucks to run from 5-10 at capitol every friday. If we be there around 530...we should get a couple runs in before all the other. We should be done around 7 and head back. Today is not too hot and currently looking pretty good.

I need a helmet if someone can let me borrow it...

You need a helmet? What does your car run in the 1/4? I though helmets were for cars 13.0 seconds or less and harnesses were for like 10.0 seconds or less.

11.5 or faster requires a roll cage. Anyways, just got back like an hour ago. It was really fun hanging out and running my car with Arjuns. Arjuns ran a 14.5 and I did a new best of 11.92. Going back again to try to get it down to 11.7. You guys should've come out with us...bastards

Yup i got 14.5 ... i was gettin crazy wheel spin on the track ... i didnt launch right for one ... and the one time that i launched perfect i thought .... i bounced off the rev limiter ... both 1st and 2nd.

My very first race... was with a Honda Accord coupe i believe. This is my first time at the track .. so i'm being very careful and cautious about everything .. that i missed the green light completely.. i totally fcukked up .. .... i take off slowly and then gun it .. after the accord was 2 or 3 car lengths in front of me ... and i managed to catch up and pull of a 15.5 .. beatin the accord by .1 something seconds ... i caught him right at the finish line.
Oh yeah .. i got a Super charged mustang GT off the line .. and i stayed ahead till end of 2nd gear ... after that he just pulled on me .. like i was stopped.. but still..
I almost lost to a modded VW GTI .. who was running 14's.... but i won! that **** was quicck..
I beat a muscle car .. YUP ... he missed a gear ..and i beat him .. he was supposed to run high 12's ...
and yeah Mason back fires ... and its crazy!! .. haha .... he almost put the guy .... who controls the lights on fire... the guy had to jump to get outta the way of the flames .. lol
yeah thats about it...
