Yikes!!! Looks like it was piling something and he got in his own stuff. Props to Kevin for the save and just being hardcore.

It seems as the car's been making incredible progress on the 24.5's vs. the 26's?

"****in-a-right doggie, that is how you drive that bitch."

Those were my exact words to Kevin when we got back to the pit. lol

Either way, this car will go 8's on the 24.5" tire very soon. We just need a decent track, that track was as good as a dirt road last night. I would imagine the 3029750235702572804 oil downs infront of us had something to do with it. Etown did there best to deal with it but there was no stopping the madness.


to Kevin for being one dedicated ****er.
