Pinks ALL Out
Sam Called me from Pinks all out in St Louis.
On his first full qtr mile run he ran mid 10 seconds. But he was REALLY excited about his second run.
His second run was a 10.20 @over 130 MPH but what made him happy is that on his 1.4 sec 60ft he pulled the front wheel...
We had a good time.
The Pinks staff was a bunk of ignorant wankers! They didn't know how to run a real event. We just waked into the staging lanes. Everyone else had wristbands but since security was almost non-existant we just walked right into the people racing.
Sam had some problems yesterday, dropped the tranny re-installed it and made to to Bowling green at 2:00AM this morning. By the time he was ready to hit the track it started raining. I think he was drinking when I called him at 4:00:)
Tell Pat that I think this is where I bought the weatherpack connectors(Its been a few years...) and if he knows anyone that's good at TIG welding aluminum I'll trade a bunch of the remaining connectors for a little welding

Sam is Good at doing all the the things I say I "should" do for speed. My kids prefer to go for looks, and I make the cars fast after they go to bed.

Fiberglass hoods without hood pins makes you a ricer, I showed you a video of the hood that came off of a 3S that was making only high 11 second passes.
