    I get an error when I try to view your vid, Rick (in both IE and FireFox).

    It's probably my pc. Some demons got into it recently. :(

    My bad. I opened the link up in an IE "Tab" using Firefox. I opened it straight from IE and it worked.


    As fast as that was, it sounds like you ran out of gear, maybe????

    I think Plum Crazy has an 8.5ish in 'er. :yup:

    We really enjoyed meeting you also. And we enjoyed seeing you run. Your car is really fast. We just wish that you had've been the one in the final 2. Congratulations on your run.:dance: (y) :thumbs2:

    Way to go! Nice showing. Never realized it was a Comet, with a Maverick front end. Good way to show both cars. Keep up the good work!
