    I won the Sportsman class at Sir last night. When I went up for pictures Badmav7086 and his Dad were just finishing up. I figure his Dad won the Super pro class in his Mustang and Badmav7086 won the pro class. 2 Mavericks and a Mustang in the winners circle. :)

    Hmm I guess I could have looked at your gallery. Thats a nice looing car. You and Badmav sure showed those ford guys what a real race car looks like.

    Was a good night. The car usually runs good but the driver screws up. Final run his light was an .013. Mine was an .009. We had a double breakout at the other end. Wish I could figure out how to get consistent .00 lights. I'll be missing the next race in July as it is on the 9th and we're leaving for the Gathering on the 8th. Have to stop in Oklahoma on the way.:)

    Congrats agian Don! Sometimes its better to be lucky than good. I had the bye run first round, won a real close one second round by .0043, then my next three oponents were .006 red, .005 red, and .001 red in the finals. But there wasn't much better than sharing the winners circle with my brother at midnight on fathers day morning!

    I wasn't sure who was driving the Mustang. When I got there your Dad had reclaimed it. LOL. Hard to keep up eith you hguys when you bring 5 or 6 cars to the track.:)

    P.S. I know why those guys go red against you. If they don't cut a great light there nowhere near you at the other end. :D

    Yeah my brother rode back with me so we could stop by the payout window and get a winners circle picture for our dad for fathers day.

    Have fun on your trip out to the gathering. Maybe we will run into each other out on the road.
