You SOB :thumb: ! You waited until your second to the last run that night to do that? I was there running the NA. That was one long ass day/night. I finally just ran my last run for fastest time. Of course I broke dial-in but I was able to go home (plus able to hit record for fastest 420a NA). That's one of my buddy's in the blue car, Raif. He didn't break, he just sucks at driving :sneaky: . Naw, of course he did, but I don't remember what it was, clutch? maybe? He had been having problems getting the ACT 2900 to stay hooked. Not that he could beat a 9.0 anyway!

Cool time congrats. Just next time do it sooner so that I could watch it. :thumb:

It was a long night indeed, and cold as well... I assume your from Conneticut also, I spoke to the 2 brothers with the blue Talon for a while before we raced, he came out hard but looks like he missed 2nd. Here's a vid of my last pass that night.

Nice! I emailed you guys about a tranny months ago, but never heard anything back. Anywho, sweet video!

Sorry to hear that, I generally reply to all our emails as soon as I get them... I would assume the email was lost in translation, sometimes my regular mail goes directly into my spam account and are eventually lost if I don't go in and retrieve them... AOL sucks! Anyway, if you have any other issues don't hesitate to call or email.

Nice run again! We all knew in the lanes you had potential to run some nice numbers, and you did. Yeah, CT. Yeah, the 2 brothers are really great guys. And 2650?! Wow, get the car on a diet and get 8's ;) (um, in the spring though. It was cold. I even put my heater on :sneaky: )

See you in the spring,

Whats my best option for posting pics as far as hosting..?
Can you explain a little more about the tranny you guys are running, like stock gears ect.? I assume that its not just your bacis rebuild ROFL .
 
Thought I would post to clarify. I wasn't implying that your car was heavy. That comment was sarcastic (hard to do in threads sometimes ;) ). We all know how heavy these babies are OMG .

And Raif went down with a "split in the driveshaft carrier bearing that welded itself to the drive shaft and took out the coupler". Heh heh, go figure. Anything can happen.
