Default Congratulations Rob 98NYFINESTVETTE winning 2009 AMR Pro 11.50

Dude....she had you!!!

However, despite spinning large off the line and running almost half second off the index, Rob Farley took the first 11.50 win of 2009 and now has five in a row spanning two season.
Shay LaScalla had the victory get away from her when she broke out by .07

Congrats to both.

Why the sarcasm? I sense a little tension in your words. Give me some credit. Every pass I spun the tires.
OH, I know. If you raced me - you would have beat me.

Thanks to everyone that participated in the Pro 11.50. It was a great feild. I am reading the stats from the track and you would be amazed to how many drivers were running so close to the index. Great job to all.

Hey Edgar, I put the brake pedal into the firewall when I raced Shay. When I raced Ellis I hit the brakes as he crossed first. He broke out by less. Lesson learned. That is why I burried the brake pedal inot the firewall against Shay. I know I spun past the 60 foot, I have the luck of breaking out.

I think Shay is the one to watch this year. I will post her average ET and also her average R/T. You guys will be very surprised to the results.

Great job Shay. You found a new home. We are your family.
