right before this pass they sprayed $800 worth of vht , there was some dude who was not wearing laces on his timberlands and lost one boot.

The track condition was near perfect...I am sure they will get this car into the 6.40s in the near future. ...

ohhhh...and a stock 20B middle iron (thick one) No billet!!!
