    Yea, yea. I was running Mike's car one time and it started pulling to the left so I had to correct and I think that is when the tires hit the bumper. He needs some traction bars bad. The stock bushings are about done.

    All in all fun day. Was running the family sedan in brackets (slow and constistant can win money) but in the final round I was making a good pass and hit the brakes a little too late and broke out by 0.008.

    No I ran a 14.242 on a 14.250 dial in. I knew I was running a little too quick and hit the brakes going through the lights but I guess just a little too late (only trapped 90.08 instead of 103 or so like other runs)

    It was me you raced against. It was a good race, I saw you slow down at the end and according to the timeslip I drove around you, but it was a very close race haha, surprisingly it's not the closest race I've ever had though...

    Yea I saw the round before that you had run a 13.05 on a 13.00 dial in. I knew it would be close but o well. Second places paid the entry fee and gas. A day of racing for free is always fun.

    Yup, can't go wrong with free racing... unless you own a new Camaro and break it trying to do a burnout...

    Dang man that sucks. I like bracket racing, but it's tricky. Not only do you have to have a consistent car, but your reaction time factors in as well. I lost the semi final round at IFO Alabama last year due to my reaction time. I was closer to my dial in, but my component's reaction time was better. UGH! lol
