Ha! I just drove past there! Rental car from Hilton Head. They let me go home a day early! It was faster than airlining.

Would love to join, but see no point as I'd only be able to race my SUV... I'll pass on that lol. Post up some vids!

Wouldn't matter what you brought. All any of us would see is his tail lights http://i531.photobucket.com/albums/dd355/paycheck409/Cars/Smileys/tree2.gif

I NEED to make it down for one of those. I guess I should be more active on the boards again and not see these posts after the fact :facepalm2:

I'll post up a vid tomorrow if it turned out; going to bed now. I drove it the first pass with an 11.65 but asked Rick to make a pass. He got a 11.37 @ 127.55!!!! WooHoo!

Very nice, can't wait to see videos. Damnit that car should be in the 10's already!

I take it traction was an issue? I see someone posted a timeslip of 10.97 at not quite 124mph, you have that by 3. That's easily a 10 sec car with drag radials.

Good idea Brian! I'll try to remember that for next time but then there won't be a vid outside the car unless someone uses an iphone or something!
