I've been watching weather.com for the past few days.....It's started out as 50% chance of daytime thunderstorms in Gainesville a few days ago. Now it is 80% chance for tomorrow as of this afternoon. The only good news is the high temp. keeps dropping.

I'm starting to doubt about going or not now. *****!

Well, letsee. I got ripped off. I should have won for fastest ET, fastest speed, best RT, best 60' and best looking driver, but I didn't win ****.

Overcast day but only two brief sprinkles not even worth mentioning. Rains came after 4pm. Great turnout of about 30+ Vipers particularly considering the threatening weather.

Stock times were in the mid 12s.

Not positive about the following but I think I'm close...

Doug Levin ran the fastest trap speed at 148mph in a beautiful yellow RT?

Lee Saunders ran high 9?

Not sure if Tom Welch ran 9s but I saw him run a very low 10. Like 10.01 or 10.10.

My best was 12.6. Gen II stock winner was 12.5.

Roe, Levin, Macedo and Welch were all on hand to help everyone out. Thanks guys.

Thanks Gary, Libby and Barb for their successful efforts even though they didn't cheat for me and give me a trophy.

Good times. Lotsa bs'ing.

Ben, I was at Doug's checking the progress on my car on Wednesday. When I got there Doug was just getting ready to test your car.......... you will be VERY happy with it when it returns home.

Antonio are you saying your car has headers and exhaust? That would be MOD class looks like a 11.9 won that class and 11.84 won stock genII class according to Gary on other thread. Good mph on your run congrats.

Hey, I said what I had done and I was put on the same class as Chuck, that is why I like busting his chops... :) :)

The class selection was very broad in everyone's opinion. I had a blast and got some useful seat time and learned from mistakes....that is what it's all about....oh yeah, and talking trash over a beer... :) :)

Were going to Bradenton Thus.16th gates open at 6pm. That would be a good time for a rematch with you and Chuck. Chuck usually runs 12.3 at that track.
