Great job Rob. You dedication and extra seat time did really helped.

Awesome turnout today with 28 Corvettes attempting to qualify and a bump in the thousandths with 1st to 16th being .39

No excuses here.. I gave it all I had.. but my (Dennis's) car had a bug, and fell flat on it face at the 1/8.. up to that point it was anyones race.. I had Rob on the tree by .002 he was ahead of me at the 1/8 by .02 (I think) I don't have the time slip.. After the car "hiccuped" it ran 12.003 @ 111 MPH I honestly don't know who would have won that race if there were no problems w/ the car.


Bottom line Rob WON and he deserved it !!! Nice job rob..

You do know I'm after the $40 next race

I am ready to work, I don't think I will sleep till Tuesday night.
I came home in 7 minutes ran some chores and I washed the Vette. I gave it a present. I even used extra soap. I know you are wondering if I removed the rubber off the rear quarters. LETS NOT CARRIED AWAY!! That is a true sign of a race car. While washing the Vette I drowned myself in Coronas and now I am typing this. Thank GOD for spell check.

What a day. Everybody was trying to hand me my A$$. WHY??

Not like I was trying to get the hype up for everyone to hunt me down.

Now I see the bounty has been raised, This will only make me more hungry and aggressive at the next race. How do I get a piece of the bounty? NO, I am not going to take myself out to get it.

Great win today Rob, and it was nice talking to you again today. I don't think you have lost too much hair, but like I said, you are delving into a much deepr innersanctum than the old 13.50 days

Keep up the great work
