And for the record. I have respect for anybody running that kind of HP. Especially with a 4 cylinder.

There's a little talk of racing my tow vehicle for ole red vs the tow vehicle for the evo for a cheeseburger more than likely I will be towing it, not that he's scared to drive it, but our girls wanna come too...

Nice swapping tires and tuning in Charleston then relax and race when he gets there

Edge has to be given to Rob's truck from a dig out to even a 1/4 mile.


I don't personally know MIKE (outside of FB) or his level of experience at the track with his evo, especially launching at 900whp, but that's a hard feat to master, I'm sure. I've just never saw him launch the car, only roll racing. And I'm sure this isn't a best out of 3 runs kind of deal, so big red's consistency is a trump card.

Now...if Dennis Davis/Little China were driving the rice rocket and got 4-5 practice runs...I'd give the nod to the Evo!

Not lookin good. Spent 2 hours detailing the rig just to get rained on b4 I could do a "not first your last" tune up on her. If it's still wet/raining tomorrow it's not gonna happen. Also showing 40% chance rain in Jackson.

Anybody got any news if they are going to be open. Looking at the weather, there seems to be showers on and off at the track.
