**93H22ACX** · 10-09-2005, 08:33 PM

nice.... hope to be there next year since i missed this one

**The Ren** · 10-09-2005, 08:35 PM

My favorite moment this year was on the way home.. and some kids in a dark green maxima passed me with their mouths open.. as I sped up to try and catch up to the group I was with.. there was that car tooting along behind me... So I slowed down to see what they wanted and as they came up on my side the guys in the backseat were holding a sign that said "Nice" with their thumbs up.. I returned the gesture and sped back up...

**Chuckster** · 10-09-2005, 09:01 PM

What was your best time of the day?

**HalfBaked** · 10-09-2005, 10:30 PM

13.9@107

with a fucking 2.7 60'...

My tranny also fucked up, my car wasn't having a good day. It was 1st time at track for me in it.

**collins** · 10-09-2005, 10:41 PM

does anybody remember what the syclone ran? (little black chevy/gmc pickup)

**HalfBaked** · 10-09-2005, 10:43 PM

Like a 13 something.

**collins** · 10-09-2005, 10:44 PM

well damn. not bad for a truck. just adds to why i want one.

**HalfBaked** · 10-09-2005, 10:48 PM

I was disappointed to see it run a 13...

However I heard him say he ran a 12 something a while back...

**collins** · 10-09-2005, 10:50 PM

lol i just like that fact that its a factory sleeper. boosted 4.3 v6 in a little s-10. all stock! haha, gotta love it.

**Boosted S60R** · 10-09-2005, 11:08 PM

Is it just me... or did the track feel like it was prepped well the first half of the day, then felt like crap the last half?

I was cutting 1.7's all day long in the first half of the day... then I started cutting 1.8's and my car kept getting sideways on the launches... =[

Very fun day though... time went by real fast. I wish the track stayed open for longer for more test 'n tune... =]

**HalfBaked** · 10-09-2005, 11:28 PM

I wish I could have had a few more runs after the finals of the FWD class.

I really think sooner or later 2nd would have let me shift into it...haha.

My best 60 foots came at the end of the day tho.

**Tbird_guy** · 10-10-2005, 12:04 AM

good times, I was gonna go, but I woke up, saw rain, and thought they would cancel.

I'm with you man! The track felt very unprepared today, compared with how it normally feels. I really had a bitch trying to get traction. You know it's bad when all the evos are spinning out for 10+ feet off the line, haha. I can only imagine what the fwd and rwd people felt. Congrats on the win, too.

For sure, bad lil trucks, but its not an s-10, cause its a GMC so really it could be called an S-15(sanoma).. I just hauled one to south carolina to get some work done to it, and the dude that is working on it has like 3 syclones one of which is the only one in the world left in its style and 3-4 typhoons and one of those is his drag truck/blazer(10 sec truck with a t67 on it)
Anyway just figured I would fill some of you all in!
Syclone- 101..
