That was a guy I came down there with. He hit the guard rail, got air borne, and rolled the car down the return lane. He's ok, banged up a little and sore as hell today. The car is another story, he put what's left of it at a friends shop so his wife wouldn't see it
I came down on about 4 hours sleep, had an electrical problem, got it patched but didn't feel much like racing after Bob took flite.

Hey Flyer, it was a real pleasure to meet you. I still got to get another pass in this year and hope we can meet up again on a better day.

I', glad it wasn't just me. I got 2 runs in .. one a 1.93 60' and the other a 1.86. They were similar 1/8 times but the better 60' I had 4 degrees of KR.

Yep, it spun both times, the elky never hooked and only did some mid 12's, the track really really sucked and the air was crap for december. I added a flowmaster 50, so the truck sounds better now

I think those Dodges sound so damn good with an exhaust on them.

You know .... that's getting up there past the fastest stock Chevy's here.

Do you run 93 octane gas?

I had the middle grade in and thats the first time it has been run hard since yall were all out there last time, my second run my 1/8th mile was 2 hundereths faster, so It might had gone a mid 14.90 at a little over 90. Next time I am going to run a load of 93 through it. Just a drop in filter and an fm 50 with duals out the back, I am very happy with how it sounds. We need some cool air, and I need to buy a damn hypertech for the thing now that they are out. Technically I am not stock, I have a cat back

It ran 2 14.86's at almost 92mph last Feb totally stock. mostly high 90's and 15.0's

That's impressive.

I wish there were more aftermarket for those things. I think they would be capable of some bad *** times.
