There's got to be at least one other member on this forum that wants to play tomorrow.

Hey JohnX, how you been, hows the truck?

I went good but tech inspection was a joke and it was real crowded, I only did one pass 'cause I didn't want to wait 2-3 hrs to do another. I met a few other Dodge owners, one from TDR, one from VD and another guy who isn't on any forums at the moment. I even got to race SRT10Kllr from VD in his Chevy gasser which we didn't know was going to happen till the last second 'cause he was in group 3 and I was in 4.

I did a 13.706 @ 99.00 to his 14.26 @ 92.99. I don't know if Jimmy knew to go on the last yellow 'cause I killed him at the lights too .144 to .817. In the 1/8 I did 8.769 @ 80.13.

I was hoping to be able to test and tune but that wasn't going to happen today so I just took a stab at my settings and went for it. I would love to whittle down my ET but it hasn't been going good for me, it's like the last $3,000 I spent hasn't gotten me anywhere and I'm actually a hair behind my PRs. But still a fun day and lots of cool cars to check out and a couple hoop-ds too.

Sounds okay to me. I have school saturday so I can't make it.

Fontana has always been terribly overcrowded, they really should start running more often to cut back on the crowds.
