    It's a shame. I only got two runs in... though both really bad.

    And I struggled all summer just to take one friday off.. I was able to get sept 16th off, but secret street didnt run due to rain.. so i fought and fought to get this friday off, and I was able to.. went down, got my two runs in.. and now have a credit which I won't be able to use next friday at all... what a waste.

    It was alright, got to see some racing, it looked like the autoX guys were having lots of fun once it got a little wet. But the best was the ricer in the red integra with the blue neon kit pulling 20 seconds.

    Get a speed pass next year. I got one at the beggining of the year and with that you can just pull up to the front of the line. No waiting for tech

    I tried to get one at the start of the season but they said they needed to tech my car 2x before giving me a speed pass. I guess if I had hauled my ass out there more I could have got one.

    I beat my PB by 1/2 second, which made me happy. Only got 2 runs in before it got rained off, which made me sad.

    Question: The rain check ticket we all got, is that only good until next week or could I save it over to next season?

    Yes, that was me you were a little over 1 second quicker. Nice run I got better on the next run but still got beat by an AMG. Not really a suprise.. LOL
    Second run I got 15.09 with a 2.122 60 footer. MPH was 91.05. Gonna need mods to compete at drag racing, but I'll try my luck at Auto-x next. I think my car is better suited to that.
