So if your running faster than 11.49, you can't race at all? WTF:bs, now, im not saying that i run something like that bc ive never race my truck but im trying to get it ready for this, for sure i will need helmet but for those guys who r lower than 11.49, im sure not many of them has a cage.

They either get it legal, ride the brake on the big end, or be a one run wonder. Ridin' the brake sucks. Personally, if my truck could a number like that, I would not care. I'd be a one run wonder and I'd have a biggest freakin' smile on my face as they told me to park it.:icon_biggrin:

Well it looks like I am going to be able to make it now. I've managed to snake out of my work schedule ....:evil

I won't be able to race unfortunately, my tune is nowhere close to being dialed in yet with the new setup, we just got finished putting it back together this past weekend. I have a few more things to get done before we can start getting it ready to race. I will still be bringing the truck though. :tu:

I'll bring the SLR Camera and the Digital Video Cam. I'll get plenty of pics and vid footage. :nana2

+1 about the weather. Also, Friday would be a good time to set up a date with the track guys for the fall. That way there is plenty of time to clear schedules and there are no excuses. I bet the chevy guys hired a medicine man to do a rain dance so they didn't have to show up for this ass whoopin. LOL. Hopefully I'll see y'all Friday. Peace!

Looks like my hopes of actually making it out to this event are slowly fading. Had a few downed trees in the yard from the last storms and finally got all of the cleanup done...this is the only weekend I have to take the branches to the dump and I need to load the first load Friday night so I can take it first thing Saturday. :crying: Considering when I get off of work and how long it is going to take to load, I doubt I'll be able to make the run down to Ennis...

I am depressed, but I gotta do what I gotta do. :crying:
