Nats is less than a week away. Pumped, gettin my mind right, go to bring the win strong, must represent this year after failing 3 years previously.

I will bring my Evo on Star Specs next event (hopefully on pump by then). I will run SM street tire or whatever its called. We can all go head to head, look at the times and that will be that. Just I do not want to hear about cars not working, tires not right, course not right for a six speed (12 years of Autox never heard anyone say that ) blah blah blah. We will all run, have fun and talk ish afterwards based on RESULTS, the way things are meant to be.

Petey Turbo - Why you no like Autox bench racing? Its a serious sport in this thread.
I support this!

my tires pressure gauge was messed up, the sun was in my eyes, the wind was blowing the wrong way, too much bugs on the windshield, too much gas in the tank, forgot to drain windshield washer fluid to save weight, humidity to high for stock turbo, not enough grease in the muffler bearing. Nelly, did i forget anything else?

Good excuses here. I'm taking notes so when I'm interviewed this weekend @ Monticello I can blame everything except the driver.

That's a good idea for a tshirt if someone could get it to look good.

The front should say "It's not the car, it's you...." then have all the excuses listed on the back.
