Got booted for the first time ever

So yesterday i drove 10 hours up to NY to go to the track. First pass i went 10.04 with a 1.48 60' which was one of my funnest passes ever cuz the car got a little loose and went a little sideways. Then I went 10.00 with a 1.53 60'. Heading towards the pit the owner stopped me and said you ran a 10.00 dont come back till you have a cage. so my night ended with 2 passes and my best time ever.

The 9.99 pass was with Emery driving since i was still in a cast from ankle surgery.

Awesome dude!!!!
I am shooting for that down here in Florida. To do a 10 and get kicked out.
Grats on your times. BTW did they give you your last time slip? Some places won't give you your slip.

This was in Leicester NY. Its a 11.5 here however since its a small track i assume they allow you to get away with a little here and there. But 1.5 second faster than when you need a cage is a little far pushing it.

Yea i got my slip. I dont have a scanner but heres a breakdown of both runs.

1.075 RT .953
1.488 60' 1.531
4.269 330 4.262
6.521 1/8 6.491
109.15 1/8 MPH 110.55
8.440 1000 8.384
10.043 1/4 10.000
139.42 1/4 MPH 140.29
