[sr98219]

Well I was gonna show but my fuel pump went out on my car so I might come down and just hang out and check out the rides and the racing.

[rsxtype-svi]

how far of a drive is it....i wonder if its too late if i leave now

[Incontt]

well what did yall run?

why in the world was that guy trying to run with that bumper zip tied up like that???!!!! what a pos!!!

Congrats to Charles at mainstream for taking those guys down pattin' on the little red car that could....local boy done good!!

Congrats to Nevrnuftq for a new best of 10.4.....I dunno where the hell he pulled that from.

Clark lost in the finals to Gary after Clark accidently deep staged and tried to recover. Race was basically over before the tree ever fell at that point but Clark still managed to squeeze out a better et but had a much worse r/t with the deep stage incident. Congrats to Gary for the win...nice guy to boot. Now take that money and fix that turbo seal

[Blake8418]

i had fun, wish it would have been a little more organized though.

Loved the orange RSX in SFWD! Heard he drove there from Louisianna or something?

Ang the go-autoworks grey civic coupe, that cars impressive.
Always cool to see a sfwd car that runs low 10s consistantly.

Bad luck for SPOOLIN, i was looking forward to that run.



I got every pass in the heads up classes on video. Ill have a video up soon. Got to go through 90+ minutes of video.

I want it to be seen in hd but not sure how much ill be able to compress it without it lookin ****ty.
I know people hate huge files but it will be much more enjoyable if it is good quality.
Anyways , give me about a week ...ill get it

[Blake8418]

what does Nevrnuftq drive?

edit: gonna say the black supra next to spoolin


Yea, nice runs

incontt, your car ran real nice too

I got one of your runs on video.

He had a helluva day, won the Outlaw and Street class. We had hoped to put on a better show for the Outlaw Final, but the car just wouldn't go into gear. Our first 2 runs the car went great on the 1-2 shift, but third was giving us grief all day long. Going by the ticket breakdown, the 330' on his first run was the same as his 9.3 pass a year ago, but I guess it just wasn't meant to be for the day.

Jimmy's happy w/ how the day went b/c nothing hard-broke, and hey we got to run the finals. The car has a LOT of potential in it, so don't be misled by the 10.6@130 that she pulled out.

[Evil Goat]

yea, Gary threw down yesterday, ultra nice guy though, JJ's race motor/tranny were literally finished and puf in saturday and put on the trailer, the first load the new motor and tranny saw was in the water box for rd 1 of qualifying, once the tranny issue is resolved its high boost tuning time and time to set some new personal bests for Jimmy.

congrats to the all the winners....this was one of the better events ive been to in a while, minus the lack of organization

[B18c1Turboed]

why in the world was that guy trying to run with that bumper zip tied up like that???!!!! what a pos!!!

HAha u such a dumbass, it wasnt zip tied... I guess from the slicks hitting the bumper, it broke the mount tap. I tried to zip tie it too make a pass but didnt wanna take the chance so i sat that run out!! thanks for caring so much!

Atleast i wansnt the little ***** that started to cry about lane choice after i was doing a burnout, come on man i was standing next to my car for 20 mins before that round you should have stepped up and been a man, instead of waiting till i start doing a burnout.. i guess that why u lost you where still crying when the light turned green!!!

[killer B]

"minus the lack of organization"


exactly. some of the people working the event had no clue what ws going on. we were just there for TnT. we were in lane 1, and one of the workers told us to get lanes 3 and 4. i tried to explain to him those lanes were for people "actualy racing" and not TnT.
so he made 5 cars behind me move over there wich created a cluster **** for the workers keeping up with the brackets.
Cliff puts on a good show, but he might want to screen his helpers a bit better. just my

Did you finish Grade school? Most of your rambling is not coherent.

[EmminoDaGreat]

Spoolin just wanted the lane that you didnt douche on... waiting a 1/2 hour for them to clean the track everytime you ran sucked...

[BLK JDM]

Here we go again!! Congrats to all that took home prizes. Can't wait to see the vids

[B18c1Turboed]

I did it once, and the 2nd time i pulled off the track so i wouldnt oil it down!! FYI i ran both lanes! And i had no problem with him wanting lane choice, my thing is why not be man enough and tell me while in the staging lanes. Are you that scared of me you cant say anything.
