Then how about this..
Do all test and tune ( basically heads up)
have 5 trophies
Best 60'
fastest Et
fastest MPH
Most improvement in ET and 60'
And maybe one more
I don't know just some thoughts.. Either way we should have fun.
No sweat on the rough time, just trying to understand everyones opinion..

Drag Racing
Jeff most of the guys in our club don't race or have only raced a
couple of times. From what I've seen most guys pull high 13's.
there are only a handful that run low 12's maybe.
Believe me there also are guys in our club that REALLY BABY their cars.
Some would never think of getting on the track no matter what.
And if they do they will walk it down the track.
(A certain red car w/ white stripes comes to mind)
Why don't we try this?
We line up run one.
Then see who's time slip says what,
Then try to match up the cars similar in times.
should work no?
That way we can get three or four runs in and call it a day.

Jeffko,
You're gross. I don't want any of you guys "beating me".
I like Arcy's idea. Lets just line up and run them.
Don't have to worry about Jeffko, there might be a cloud in the sky that day (he won't show with the car). OUCH That Hurts.

I am planning to refinish my deck or something. Maybe it will rain in Gurnee and keep it clear for Byron.

How did I get involved in all of this. I just want to see if I can better my own personal best of 11.9.
I have a track record........ not like some other smack talkers!
How about you Arcy, I think you have the right to talk smack also...
Not like some other posers.
Lets get it on ladies

Yeah Chris just trying to better yourself, earlier it was trying to beat yourself.
Weather looks like it might be Ok for Jeff to at least drive out to Byron.
Watch out for Fred, He's got some tires this time.

Sorry Mike,
You are also a proven racer with experience who has the right to talk smack to others who don't show.
Please proceed.........
Sorry, I didn't mean to leave you out.
LETS GO RACING

Wow, We all know that wasn't Jeff at the track (he does have computer skills though(photoshop), there were clouds in the sky that day.
Anyways. When Jeff moves his way up through the ranks and beats Gary, Sid, Wolfie, Rich S., Rich M., Erik, Blas, Lowell, Bob, Frank, Glen, Joe, and Marty We will let him line up against Arcenio, Mike and Myself. Until he proves his skill level he isn't allowed to hang with the "Big Dogs"
Us three figure it will take him a season or two of no clouds before he can line up, "AND WIN AGAINST" that lengthy list. By then we will all be in the low 10's.
SEE YOU IN A COUPLE OF SEASONS JEFFKO...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I have been having fun razing you guys, but truth be known....Hi, my name is Jeff and I'm a track virgin.  I may talk like a track whore, but I am just breakin balls. It was fun while it lasted, but you never know, one of us might get lucky. As they say, the bigger they are the harder they fall. Anyway, I look forward to having fun with you guys and getting a few pictures.
By the way, (I can't resist) you mention I must beat several other guys like Blas and Frank to get to the BIG 3. One may think you are trying to avoid me because pom poms and pinko don't race.

Jeff, I love it. Keep it going man. You keep me laughing everyday.
I can't wait for Sunday, it's going to be a blast.
Will you make it to the car show on Saturday?
If not, will you meet with us at the gas station on Sunday morning?
What's the plan man?

Pickup the car Friday and shoot back for a union meeting at the VFW. Paint Luke's balls Saturday morning (he has a solar system project for school) I am starting to sound like Ralph , clean the car a little bit and then head over to Alex's car show. Go home and have a few drinks so I can sleep that night and dream of time slips dancing in the air. Oh oh there goes an 11.73 one
