Title: I Lost - Fair And Square.
Post by: James Buchan on August 14, 2004, 12:42:59 AM

Hats off to Brian, beat me fair and square on the last run of the night. It was a pretty damn close race but the tank pulled through.

Times:
Me 14.103 @97.69 R/T .206
Brian 13.881 @95.70 R/T .387

Brian and I both had some mechanical problems, he blew a CV on his first attempt and I had some ignition/jetting issues.

Or first match up of the night (second to last run) Brian red lighted so we had to run again (he still beat my time on that one)

So I'll have your case of BUD for you tmrw Brian - until next year...... :lol:
