I wish I would have gotten there earlier to see some of the better races. I did think it was kind of bull s**t that so many drag cars were allowed into the races. I was assuming that the fastest "street" car shootout would mean that your car had to be a "street" car not a race or drag car. Just my 2 cents.

our camp didnt fare vey well either. we did qualify in the quick 8 domestics but ended the nite early.
1st pass a shakedown for the owner/driver since hes changed his combo quite a bit and wasnt used to the noise and power. ran a 10.08@114 with a 10lb pulley and the air to liquid intercooler water pump off.
2nd pass was where we think the damaged incured. the car started up with a really strange bearing type noise. anyways, does his burnout and a small puff of oil smoke somes out of the cowl. we think nothing of it. launch, doesnt leave hard, et's a 9.90 we thought, what the heck? opens up the hood, theres some oil dripping on the underside where the blow off valve is and we find a piece of aluminum, he asks me, where do you think this came from? well turns out vortech's xxtrim blower is now a piece of paperweight. impeller is destroyed.
after the corvette layed a good vht down the track. we called it a nite.
so cedric almost had to get another supra?
