I'm driving. Leaving Smithown around 12:00. Get there early, eat of course. Let the cars cool down and beat the traffic.
D,
You can borrow my ET streets

A little Viper/Porsche shootout ?

See you there...

Joo got it, main! I'm on street tires so it'll be interesting keeping this car going down the track straight instead of sideways :)

I'll see if Carl is working tonight. Maybe I'll give him some dough and he'll put us in our own lane.

I went 12.0 in my stock Viper. You should have me, but it will be fun either way.

See you later....

Well, the snake beat the Porsche every time :2tu: My first run was the best 12.168@112 mph. The speed is low because I missed 4th and coasted through the traps. Jeff had problems launching the Porsche and was lighting up all 4 tires on the launch. Makes for a great show but a poor 60' times. One run was very close my 12.35@115 to his 12.37@115. The announcer almost creamed himself with a foot-by-foot commentary :) People in the stands said we were battling every inch of the way. As I grabbed for a gear, he'd gain and vice versa. Probably the closest race I've ever had. I had a blast.

Paul,

Had a great time. I can't believe it was hard to launch an AWD car. Who would have thought ?

Can't wait for us to do REAL battle in the big boys...

Talk to you soon.

I know, I was shocked myself. I thought you'd be kicking my butt off the line every time. It was a lot of fun, regardless.

I know why you can't wait to battle our big boys. It's because you'll be waiting for me at the top of the track every time. :) No way will I be able to keep up with your car. At least not in the beginning. It may get closer once we turn the boost up a little but I'm not too hopeful for right now. I need to see that boost gauge read above 25 lbs to know that I have a shot at you. Your Viper is pretty sick.

BTW, how did the car show go? Did you sell the car to P Diddy? :)
