Ya know I think it is kinda funny that some runs you think should be throw aways because of one reason or another, but I shouldn't be afforded the same. Either way I have been bored with things for months now. Not saying I am going to sell it for something else, but really don't get a whole lot of enjoyment out of it.

OK. The first run got deleted by Rob because I shifted to neutral at 6700 RPM so yeah I "throw that run away" the first run with us on the interstate it looks like you left on the first honk. Yeah I chased so I guess its a race but you got the jump. Anyway I'm done with it. Dont really matter to me anymore the car is gone and I know that the car would have outperformed the white car the way it went to Terry. When we raced it was running 7.50s and when I let it go it was running 6.70's. You wouldve had to spray it to keep up and we all know that aint happening. :poke:
