Big congratulations to Jimmy Potts!
He deserves the credit. He's a hard working guy as well as good friend. I was supposed to go last night and missed the action

.

Knowing Jimmy, there's a lot more left in his car.

Regards,
Doug

Congrats on getting into the 9's!!!

I guess since the car was built by TNT it is still a "Texas" car -- It was just run on a Florida track.

I guess by that logic they are all Detroit cars because that is where they were assembled....

Now why'd you have to go & say that?

 

[Anthony - 98 GTS]

Vipers may be "assembled" in Detroit - but they are made to go "FAST" in Texas.

I would love to see a mod list for that car, plus a pic. Moroso is just up the road from me, and I need to know if there is a new single digit ET monster I need to avoid
