True Street is sneaking up on you Extreme guys! Cars keep dipping into the low 50s! I was pleased with my heap even if though I do have some work before the next race.
My 5.75 doesn't seem that quick anymore, but with mine blowing the gasket on #2 in the process, I hope a little more work and it'll get quicker. I'm happy with the progress.
Congrats to Mike Wheeler and Mr. Low ET record holder Pro Street D.

| I have to give it to you CJ you have that thing moving pretty good. Since we have a month off I am going to do some changes to see how much faster I can get my "Silver Trud" to go. Also I am going to start drinking some engery drinks or something before the race since i was tree'd so bad in the last race so maybe all my lights will be better than the .o52 light I had. |
