    Man that sucks about the traction problem .I hope they can do something to make it better for raceday .If someone were to hit the wall it will most likely be me .Im one of those dummies that wont let off till im in the wall .Sure my pea brain tells my foot to let off occasionally during a run ,but my foot is hard of hearing ...

    I'm sure they will have the track squared away for the THAW. Good group of people up there.

    Hope the track is up to snuff by then as well.Will be able to tell in just over 7 seconds .Havent ran on that track since last summer ,but from what i remember it was pretty smooth on the big end then in both lanes .I had my worst 60 foots there though,about a tenth off ,but it was on a test and tune night in 100 degree weather.Cant wait to race this thing again after 4 long months .See you guys next Friday night for a little test and tune :) ...

    The extended forecast says partly cloudy and upper 50's. Also shows snow chances for tuesday but then the upper 50's for the weekend. What was the temps last year?

    Gee im scared now ,not :D:p:).How come you are always so vague when you talk about a drag car Rusty ?Its not fast ,but not slow .It didnt do as good as it could have ,but it did what we wanted ,WTF .Are you affraid that people will laugh at you if you plan to run a # and then arent able to back it up ??? You are amung freinds here ,so speak up.Im planning on improving from a 7.27 best in the 1/8 to a 7.1 if the track is sticky nuff or break it trying and i dont care who knows it ,and i have done no testing or even driven the Dart since the DOTD last October.May not happen ,but thats the plan ,see the difference ??? Not trying to be a jackass ,but man up and call out a damn # for once.I had to talk a little a smack before a race ,so no hard feelings :)...

    Hey every one come on out. It can't be as cold as last year. A good Time will be had by all. We consider this stop number one on the 2010 vintage race series in Texas and Oklahoma. And it's put on by the best bunch of guys and gals you will ever meet
