Yeah I ran better times my first time out there ever going down a track than I did last night. The track was pathetic and it looked like all the 5.0s were running about the same time regardless of mods

It was a brutal night for racing. The DA was terrible. My best was a 7.4 which is off a bit from what I normally run. You guys had a freaking huge turnout last night but us slomaros did OK. I know you guys are hiding the big stuff from us until October ![Embarrassment](images/smilies/redface.gif)
It was fun racing with you guys.

was funny seeing 2 to 3 people doing a burnout in reverse though lol. annnddd a punk ass kid with a green 302 boss calling my car slow when he couldnt even drive. he couldnt do a burnout even if he tryed and he also stalled the car leaving the light. kids have no respect these days.

You can still be young and not be a kid. It's all about how you carry yourself mentally and physically. If you act stupid and immature a lot of the time, you are acting like a kid.
I can easily point fingers.
