Gentlemen it was a great pleasure sharing this with you all. Your support and enthusiasm was definitely appreciated. These are the facts, when this bet was booked I had never raced a quarter mile in any way in my life. My first couple quarters were in the 13's and when I booked the bet I had not driven my car in a year more than 20 miles tops. The day I went to the track and Tommy asked my times, I told him the truth they were an 11.9 and the two other 12 second passes. Those runs were on a track that was prepped the day before, not that day, and I almost wrecked on each one(un-prepped tracks are way slicker than the regular road, and I didn't know this at the time), and I told tommy the track wasn't prepped and he assured me the prep lasts a few days. This has been a big rollercoaster for me, I had not driven in the last two weeks due to the track being closed for NASCAR, other than 3 passes I did yesterday with a prep(not as good a prep as we had today) and I ran a 11.25, 11.6, and an 11.2X. I went out there today knowing in my head I was going to win or wreck, losing was never gonna happen. I put the ****ing hammer down every run and it was an absolutely perfect day (75 sunny) and the car hooked like it was on super glue and pulled like a ****ing john deer tractor. I appreciate the support once again guys and Buzz it was great to meet you, I will post my professional video that was made of the race as soon as I get it.
