with that 1st pass of 10.06 looks like you won it! Even if the cars behind you run a 10.00 they can't beat you

I haven't forgot everyone but it's been sort of a long day and we just finally got home.

At the awards ceremony I was presented with the award for the quickest street machine eliminator. The car went a 10.0xx every single day this week and a bonus 9.979 on Sunday! Freiburger even made sure to mention that prior to calling my name which was pretty cool. Apparently it raised some eyebrows throughout the week. It was the only car to do so.

The SME shootout went as predicted. I cannot Pro Tree to save my life and looking at the log it appears to have spun just a smidge out of the hole. Car was up over 1mph but the 60ft was .040 off a normal run (it's been dead nuts 1.50/1.51/1.52 all week) - it can almost all be attributed to me. turned up the LC to 1600 for that pass. Tires baked in the sun for a good 30min. I waited for the right lane to stage first. Asleep at the tree. A comedy of multiple errors basically. Oh well. The ol girl did her job. I just have to do mine next year so I can defend this (and maybe win a round)
