Mission
« on: June 09, 2007, 11:04:40 AM »
Went to Mission last night and watched Darren do a  few passes... best one I saw was a 10:41 I know there was faster in it...
Also talked to a guy who was at test and tune and said a beetles engine fell apart on the track \"Faster than a cheap suit\" (His words) made me laugh though. Turns out Cosgrave's Pauter blew up and lost a fender on his maden runs... too bad for him, He was so close to racing this year... I guess he has 2 engines to build now including James turbo monster...I know you dont have computer Dave , But I hope you get racing this year.
Mission was empty, lots of passes could have been made last night. They said everyone thought they were under water.... Also they are going to do a Sunday Street legal event. Seems to be new blood in there and they are making it work... :rockon:

I called Dave and left a message, will get the scoop on his engine. He does have a computer now so he might chime in.

I'd be suprised if Dave can turn the computer on. :lol: I'm going over to his house to help with the motor tonight.
