Default Can't wait to get my car back

I'm still without a car, I haven't been on the forum too much, but man everyone is posting all these new personal best. its killing me........Congrats to all you guys and props to the tuners for making it happen. Very depressing that I don't have my ride since I grenaded my rear end and trans. I was hoping that my car would be ready for this weekend. But it really does not matter since its going to rain tommorrow. That sucks

Well perhaps I'll get to run it for the last challenge and also get a new personal best

Sorry Jerry.

It is that time of the year. Weather and courage to wring out every tenth since it is the end of the season will that happen.

I saw your car tonight Jerry, it's looking good. It was not some small/minor breakage so they just want to double and triple check everything to be sure it's perfect and ready to race.

good luck Jerry! I see all these personal bests too and I'm getting mad! I still cant' get to 11.50 dammit!!!!! My 60' are the worst. I was hoping to get to the low 1.6's but I can't even do that. hopefully with the colder weather will help us all out!

Well now that the Cartek rental is history.... and they gave all that love and attention to all the participants and produced those wonderful results and personal best. They will give me 150% attention now, I'm jealous.................

I hear you Marc

Edgar my Idol.......I want to be just like you when I grow up

Shay, you should see those numbers at the next challenge, your car should be running lower than 11.50s in this cool weather

That's true, they will, but even during that rental there was still staff (they have a pretty big staff ) back at the shop workin' on your beast. All of their customers get equal love.
And hopefully you'll be at the next rental as well gettin' some too.

Jerry, did you saw what my new ZLS3 ran, that car is so serious I can hardly get a few passes, I went to Island Dragway, made one pass and got trown out, I went to Atco made one pass 10.4x and broke a harden out put shaft, I am back on the road and is doing the damages out on L.I to those big mouth guys. We do it on Edison Dragway on the Island.

I count only 2 CC events left that I can race in.The third is the top 16. Unless I go to the Street Wars, and one other event I saw on the calender for RP. i believe those races will be on a Sunday though.
