Ramey went 7s on a few runs and broke/missed a gear in round 4. Steve o went 7.60s and then got disqualified in round 4 because he decided to have a staring contest instead of bumping in which cost him the event. Aleman went consistent 8.0x the whole event. No hondas made it to quarterfinals in all motor.

They had the live stream again this year which was great. OP your from VA and weren't there, come on mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.


Sunday was a slow day due to the rain but other than that it was business as usual. I'm shocked to see someone complaining about the prep at MIR, hands down one of the best track preps around.

The big issue with Section 8 getting DQ'd, along with the FoxBody was it was alreay past curfew for the track and Miller had made it clear that there were to be no games being played at the tree.

was a great time. it was packed sunday despite the weather that day. weather was warmer than normal on thursday and friday which could have being throwing things off. mechtech came within .04 of the import world record and ended up going 5.67 in their 2j powered car. event should be even smoother next year with the new staging lane rules miller is putting in place.

The event was bad *** as usual. The doors coming off was not the ktuned hinges....

Prep was on point, They didn't go as nutzo as they usually do with the 60ft which was actually a little better for the hondas that could still figure it out.
