Roman's gittin' faster ...sweeet! first pass 10.74 @ 129 mph!

well i actually couldn't join him and the guys, anyhow onto the goodstuff... Roman is out t'n't ing at Grand Bend Motorplex tonight

he called me on his way back to the pits after his first pass, he went 10.74 @ 129.06 mph, on a 1.51 60' 6.89 in the eighth at 101 mph. now how is that for mph'ering on motor! ****ing awesome!

i told him not to fret, a good track and some good air is all he needed! i figure i owed him this friendly post! maybe now he'll be happy! and he is not even done yet! i am grinning from ear to ear right now! he must be pretty happy as well! you earned it!

so ahh Roman you still want that part I picked up today at UPS, lol!

It got better, 10.62 @ 128.8mph with a 1.48 60 ft

I have been told my shifts are violent, Roman ripped his lou's short stick off his pro 5.0 shifter. He sheared the bolts


Congrats again buddy!!

I love racing.

We'll see. I want to make my upgrades and then go out again. But I think that friday night at the Bend are pretty much going to be my main racing outings from now on.

You in?
