Had an awesome time like always, its good seeing old friends and meeting new ones. So much stuff all in one weekend its hard to know where to start, so I guess I'll just start with Friday a Buschur's. Tried to show up early Friday morning and found that there where a ton of people already there and it filled up quickly!

Walked around a bit and snapped some pics, too many nice cars to fit in this post.

I have a few more I'll post later, I did miss getting Jason's (lilevo's) csm's :(

Moving on to Friday night, went to the track to test the car and get a qualifying pass in. Both passes I bogged the launch but I still ended up with a 11.3, which was my previous best time so far.

Saturday I tuned up the 2-step and went out for a test pass, ended up with a 10.6 @ 132 with a 1.5 60'! Going into qualifying I was feeling pretty good, ended up going 10.7 @ 131.

Sunday I didn't made a qualifying pass and just went straight into eliminations. Ended up getting lined up with my buddy Jason's evo (angryaero), I knew it was going to be a really hard car to beat. So staging up I was trying to bring up the rpm's before I staged and ended up leaving with way too much boost and breaking the t-case. All in all a great weekend, the car did great even on an unknown condition t-case.

Qualifying after round 3, #19 and Warren at #23

And of course a few CSM's I found over the weekend.

I'll have some video's coming soon!

Congrats on your new best time! Looks like you didn't just beat it but beat it by a lot. Way to represent for the csm's. Still hate we weren't able to make it up again this year but one of these days I will be back.

It still amazes me how guys will have $100k+ evo's there and the crowds are drawn to the older, weird stuff. I'm the same way. I love me some evo's but the older vintage stuff with a twist is where its at for me.

Oh yeah beat it by .7! Can't ask for much more than that.

I'm always drawn to the weird stuff!
