Good luck with the Jeep.

Back from Atco Raceway. Won't be going there again without a drag radial since you CANNOT get around the water box, and lightin' up the tires doesn't help get the water off as you can see by the short times. Still wound up with a better ET and a couple of 97mph passes.

Was nice to meet brentalan. Sweet VIII you got there, man!! Sorry I bolted after I said I'd hang around. After that last run, the car did nothing but spin them because of the water box, so I decided to sit and wait for you. Then it seemed like someone broke because there was no action, so I wound up leavin'.

Catch ya next time and congrats on that new best. :Beer

Nice to finally meet you NYC-LS8. Don't worry about missing me on the way out. I did a run or two more after we talked and the track was slippery at that point. I left shortly after you.

Thanks for the links to the pictures!!! They look awesome!

Here are my 2 best slips:

Nice runs, man. That car is haulin'! Well, for a slippery track that is

That one run at 1:10 was an anomally. Somehow I didn't spin at all on that one. All the other ones after 1:00 were terrible. I spun off the line and a lot on the 1-2 shift. It kicked sideways on most of them. those were all 14.3's and 4's

I didn't even know about that video either. She showed me when I got home! I would have told her to video your LS too.
