I did not, first qual pass was 11.47@125 2nd qual pass was 11.17@128 and i didnt do a 3rd pass... then in eliminations i only had to do a full out pass in eliminations when i went 11.2@124, i let out at the end of that pass....


I knew i not only had to cut a light agenst the single slam but i had to shift all the gears... i managed to cut a better light and shift the gears i knew after i shifted 2nd i was good.. we both had nearly identical 60's too... Best race all day forsure!

I would like to to thank the IFO team for coming out. The English Racing team had a great time. I personally set a new personal best of 8.83@156 with the Eagle Talon. There's more in this old girl I'm just perfecting the combo. The final round between Tim in the red Supra and my self was nothing less than spectacular, vids to follow soon.

it was a great event, minus the guy running the staging tree. Congrats to everyone that ran, you did better than us sitting in the stands. good to see a lot of you guys again, probably see most of the same crowd at Battle in Woodburn.

No worries man. That's what it's all about. We're all there to have fun and help each other out. Cuz it's no fun just racing by ourselves. I'm bummed you didn't get to run the car the rest of the day. Hopefully you guys can make it up here for the next NOS event next month.
