Thanks Mike, I'll have to double my efforts! :D Trapping 130mph at E-town is sick! :eek: Just imagine Atco in the fall. :crazy:

Brent, sounds like you had a lot of fun. :yesnod: How much of the night have you spent trying to convince your wife that you need a 415 or 422? lol :D

Mike thanks for letting me drive that beast of yours. I just wish I didn't miss 4 th on that 2nd run racing that other Stroker car, I had a 1.53 60' and that could have been a 10.6X pass. I wish I had more seat time, but I was suprised on how well I did. Car was a definite rush!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOW I WANT ONE :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

Oh forgot to tell ya, I still have your car. You are being bumped as a driver by me. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I cannot believe that car went 7s in this weather! :eek:
It was a bit cooler tonight but still by no means was it good air, and E-town too, not Atco! Simply amazing. :crazy:

I bet the former record holder is really bummed out :nonod: now.....oh wait, you already were the former record holder! :lol:
Congrats to CARTEK, Mark, Brent and especially Mike and your awesome machine. :cheers:
