    and thanks for the compliments, i was trying to keep clean runs but at the same time i wanted to push myself harder on each one. ah well, there's always the next event to try something different . now if i can just figure out all these new FD rules and decide whether it's even possible for me to try next year .
    I hear ya on that. I'm going to try to qualify in Chicago in Feb. Are you? The rules stink, but they are always changing them. Oh well. The radar gun was right at the pole by the first big sweeper. They didn't tell you because the judges took it upon themselves to do the competition the way they felt necessary. That's why the qualifying was kind of unorganized at first. Oh well. It all worked out in the long run.

    i'm highly doubting i'll be able to get to chicago, but it is a possibility. the only thing i'm wondering about is the whole license series and the necessity to get a license before you're able to enter an event. i guess it's their way of weeding out the little guy yet again . the whole seeded/unseeded driver thing was kinda dumb in the first place, but i guess it's really about marketing and bringing the money in for FD since it's a national level event.

    Thus Maximum Angle They left the door wide open for a East Coast series..ya know? Most of them are West Coast anyways. Somethig will hapeen for the little guys. The other big guys are just letting FD sort out all of the crap to see if it's gonna work before they dump money into it. It will eventually happen that another series will step up. Just keep getting seat time whenever you can and when the other series gets here...you'll be good. That's what I am hoping for. We are really lucky to be in Atlanta now a days. next season the seat time will be never ending. You might now have the tires for it

    The license thing is just a way for them to make more money. It's what makes the world go round.
