Anyways, I'd like to congratulate Bryan(83Z) for good day also - beat the Vette (Sam) - won fastest qualifier and 100 bucks - getting 2nd in the shootout after losing to the sponsor car by .080. lost it at the tree too , acutally outran the guy. - then driving the car home.

SamZman Posted June 27, 2004 Report Share Posted June 27, 2004 Originally posted by Jooomer: Wait, THE compressed air guy? He's still around?Yeah he has an '03 Cobra, in case you didn't know. Last weekend almost backed into Dyno Bryan's car, then managed to run straight over a 6 inch concrete curb.. front of his car is already in primer too..Also saw him flooring it inappropriately in the pits.

And was he spraying compressed air? That is the essential question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is very true, this is how I managed to beat a low 11 sec car in the race I ran a 11.5. The guy against me ran a 11.40 but I got him at the tree. My .202 to his .424 was all the difference that it made for me to win. He also had 6 mph more then me in the 1/4 but I still managed a W smile.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
