Ill post videos when I get home but here is a quick rundown....
The spot to be on friday is a place called Frank-n-steins. Lambos, Ferarris, Bentlys, hell even saw an arial atom. I met the guy with the twin turbo Ford GT that raced the supra on Forumwars. A ricer trying to do a burnout almost hit a twin turbo Gallardo. A mustang did a burnout and the cops drug him out of the car and arrested him. Then the crowd was pissed and started throwing water bottles at the cops and the cops got out their tasers so everyone started running. There were alot of fights so they cut the bikini contest short. There are videos on youtube for all of this.
Saturday we go to the track with my buddys challenger. I knew he was going to ask me to drive it but I decided I dont want to risk wrecking it. Then I watched him run a 12.5 and they talked me into making a pass. Went 11.5 and then 11.0. He is on 20" NT05R's so I wasnt expecing good 60's but then today I cut a couple 1.6's and got it to 10.8 twice. I thought that was good for a 4200+ car. Mr Norms said the car was making 960rwhp but it wasnt even close to that. Best trap was 131 but most were 129-130. The car was tuned in Michigan in the winter and its on the same tune down here. I think that and the fact that we were probably heat soaked every run didnt help.
My buddy tried to qualify for the street class but ran a 12.3. I tried and went 11.0. They only took the 16 fastest cars and we made the last spot so my buddy was excited. He didnt care that I now had to race the number one qualifier which was a turbo termi on juice with an auto tranny that qualified at 8.60. lol It was ugly off the line and he jumped on me hard then before the 1/8 I could tell he had big problems and I was gaining on him. I watched him getting squirley right in front of me but I stayed in it and passed him right before the line. You would have thought we just broke a world record they way my buddy and his friends were celibrating when I came back. lol It was a 10.8 run. Next round I draw a notch on 18psi. There were 8 cars left and I was the only that wasnt on a slick. The good news was the notch had traction issues and also went 10.8 on the last run. My buddy comes up and tells me not to be a pussy and if I didnt come back with a win I better be broke. Well I launched into wheelhop and pop goes the axle. Day over. Had a guy ask me to run his cts-v but a supra and bike wrecked and it was taking forever to clean the track so we left. I had a blast regardless. I did drive the cts-v around the complex. What a car!
