Thanks for letting me drive your car Nick! Your car is awesome! I wish I could have put it in the 9's for you. The car will do it no prob. Traction was a bit of an issue at the end of the day in test and tune. You don't owe me anything, but I would be glad to have a few beers with you You are definitely a class act and I look forward to seeing you again

You know, you're probably right! This Daddy Day care stuff takes up a lot of time

Man, why do you always have to bring up the axle incident... hell, you still had three left so what was the big deal?

Thanks for the compliment buddy! It's always a pleasure hanging out with you also!

When are you taking the GSXR to the track? As soon as I get a few more miles on the zx-10, I'll be heading down.


Kevin

I know that comment about you looking around at the spectators standing against the wall was the sign the car is just too slow for you Let's see what a little more boost and a little larger turbo will do to it, wait, I can't do that.............

LOL! Can you believe it? I had to come on here and see if everyone else had as good of a time as I did during the weekend of the shootout. From what I've read, it seems that they have! It's great to hear that there wasn't hardly any destruction at the hotels this year and that most of the people were respectful of your property during the dyno cmpetition and car show.

You know that I feel the exact same way about you and your family buddy. It's definitely hard to find true honest friends these days!

About the comment on making the car faster, all I can do is

Take care,
Kevin

Sure looks like it... You can tell you went out there with a crew and a plan

Like everyone seems to be saying, I'm disappointed in the fact that I didn't get to meet you in person

Yeah 3 out of 4 isnt bad so I guess you're right. lol

Im not sure when im going to take the bike to the track. Havent really even ever thought about it in depth. I just enjoy riding. The time is getting closer for my new toy to arrive.... well in a few months so im going to have to switch my focus to 4 wheels again and getting back into driving & racing. I may need a few pointers but this time it will be because im switching to RWD.
