Rob, after I was done whining to you about the track, I had 2 runs of 128+ & then knocked down an 11.49 in the FAST consolation ladder, maybe I was jumping to conclusions. You're right about the greasy track on Friday though, I was still getting some serious wheelspin down near the lights.

Congratulations to Rob Clary setting his all time mph at 117+. The yellow submarine is blistering down the track.

Next year.

Dad and I both had a good time. I ended up racing instead of spectating and had a best of a 15.01, and again as stated above, friday the track would not hook and i could not get better than a 2.34 sixty foot. Saterday was better and I ended up winning my shootout. Thanks again to Rob and Johnny Kat for helping "Plug" the check valve on the power brakes. Congradulations to Eric Simpson who also won his shoot out, and to everybody who won or had personal bests.
