I just wanted to slow down and thank everyone for the hospitality, last night, mighty fine people!!

Special thanks to the Airspeed/Pointblank (Geoff's hard work & Shane's tools) pit crew that modified my battery tray to get through the 'Tech Check'.

Damn, gonna lighten the load for the next time
 ;)

Chris & Courtney, have a great time on the Island!!  :rockon:

Yes it's true, Shane ran a blistering 10.83 and there was a backfire that sounded like  the pop off valve, it happened on each run (the back fire)
On the second to last run there was some sparks that looked like it came from the tail pipe hitting the ground but i think it may have been alum going thru the turbo and out the tailpipe.
Last run, Shane was on his way to his best pass.....3/4 mark Ka- Boom!!! Looks like one piston exploded and took a few other things with it. We will have it all back together for the GCVWS, not to worry.

Everyone is going to help Shane pull it and get it fixed.\

It's all about the love...and hugs :wub:
