Well I just got home from the midnight drags in vegas. I must say, I was very disappointed. There was such a huge turn out that I only got one run. To make matters worse there was a 35-40mph head on wind and the track was in crappy condition... nobody could get traction on their launch. To make matters worse I blew my run by spinning my tires during my launch and missing 3rd gear. Here is the clip of my run.

Needless to say at least I caught up. Oh sorry about the video cutting off before the times came up. the girl recording it stopped recording before my time came up to look back at the next set of cars. ill post my slip when I get a chance. its late...

I just cant believe how much the wind slowed you down

it looked slow because it was slow... the track was in crappy condition and there was 40 mph wind blowing head on. I only ran a 17 sec 1/4 mile. Thats fricken slow. The last drag I did a long time ago when I only had an intake I was runnin 15's.

I think everything looked slow because the group I went down with sat at the top of the bleachers so they were far away from the track. And the wind really slowed you down because it was blowing so hard head on.

dang dude that sucks!! the drags were soooo flippin awsome. soooo many people came.

About the times, 80% of the people didnt want there time posted so it was just me zooming in on a blank time board, so i just cut that part out of the vids to make them smaller.
