I won't be able to make it because I have to work. But I have a car with a friend of mine and he is going to take our car and race it this weekend. It is a blue 1974 Corolla with a 13b with a 200 shot of nitrous. It has a Puerto Rico license plate with my name on it (Ismael). At the last event it ran 6.20 all day but it could not hook up the tires with 1.45 in the 60 feet. We have to change the angle of the rear end. Will see what happens, if we can get it to hook up, it should be aleast a 5.9 pass.

sorry, i'm not going to make it. $20 is a little too much for me to watch 1/8th mile racing. they should have made it $10. take pictures of some of the badass cars.

Got to the quarter finals with my horriable running 1st gen but like a dumbass red lit in the quarters.thanks Alex for your help. now need get a new fuel pump and hopefully run what i want in the 1st gen. Man 20bucks is not bad cosidering all the badass cars that go and the ton of good *** racing that happends. BOTI is a 1/4 mile event and it dosent even comes close to the lakeland events.
