It was a freakin mess.

I got there at 9pm and it was packed. Decided to go ahead and try to run, so I sat for almost 3 hours to get the first run in. It was a typical track that let the big cars and bikes have priority over the long line of street cars. Turns out that they were only clocking the 1/8th mile, not the full 1/4. Someone said they had an accident early on at the big end of the track and decided to pull back to the 1/8th only afterward. Then I end up with a very crappy 8.008 1/8th mile ET. Thankfully it was a short drive home.

 

sucks to hear...atleast it was free right hahah.

 

which track? i may be willing to make a drive to get away from HRP. i dont want to end up at lonestar though

 

3 hours??? jesus. I thought my 1 hour wait was bad.

 

Being free was the only good thing about it. I did see several members out there. Hopefully it will calm down in the coming weeks. It was a real nice track. I doubt that I'll be going back to Ennis.

 

how did ya 60' out there last nite Big Tex?

 

Hey PEDRO - good meeting you last night. I had a weak 1.83 60'. I didn't have any practice launches and didn't want to screw up the only attempt I got at it.

Did you happen to see my run? I was matched up against sam88gta1 in saladbars TBSS. He got me off the line by .076 and I had a better ET by .076. They gave me the win by .0001 !!!

Needless to say, it was the closest race I've ever been in.

 

man I am glad I stayed home and went with my gut feelings. maybe in the fall when it cools down some.

 

Good meeting you aswell. A 1.83 aint bad considering its a new track and the "rubber" aint layed down yet.

Nope, didnt catch your run, Virgil was ready to leave after Moze mad his pass. Good run against Shawn's TBSS, glad too see you pulled the win light.

 

hey rich an 8.0 is not bad at all. what was the mph? isnt that faster then your run a month or two back?
