Well, I am 21 and I use my car to get girls. I now know to stay away from your youngest because...I would pick her up, offer to let her drive (not knowing she is a pro), she could play it off like she is all excited, then blow my skills out of the water (and Camaro's don't have Oh Shit handles) leaving me looking like a dumb ass. Bleh. You win sir.

So I talked about one of my daughers getting to line up with a Mustang. Well here Alyssa got to race a 2012 5.0 that was lightly modded and tuned. We had gears installed before the race and something happened to the traction control, abs, and stabilitrack. All of the warning lights were on and the car had no t/c. It was hard getting traction and a good launch but she still managed to pull off the win!

Prepare to be asked lots of questions about your daughter.....

That's awesome. I try to get my daughter to drive my cars and she gets "mad" because its hard to shift. I have some work to do Looks like you are doing great!

Mine's a knock out as well... if I can just get her to drive!

Great job dad!

Very nice. I unfortunately have never got to start racing of any kind. Live like 2 hours from a track... Keep up the good work!

Thanks! It's so fun watching the faces of the guys in the staging areas. She'll be sitting in the car pulling up towards the front of the pack right before she goes to race and the double takes are priceless. It's like they can't believe she's driving the car. It's been a lot of fun and I enjoy watching them drive probably more than driving myself. Although, I'm going to have to go out to one of the test and tune days just to get it out of my system. The car has been a great family thing and we're all loving it. Tell your daughter to get in it and just go for it. She'll love the attention and the thrill!

Yes, it was very nice. The guy she raced was hanging out with us talking up a storm in the pits and after the race he disappeared. I'm assuming he went home to start working on new mods.. haha

So we raced again last night with the new drags tires and the Forgestar wheels. Car hooked up better but we were running with a terrible DA of 6400'. The car is an 11 second car if it could breathe. Maranda ran a 12.5 @ 112. Corrected numbers are 11.7 @ 121 mph. And her sister ran a 12.8 @ 111 mph. I recorded Maranda but in my excitement turned the video camero off instead of hit stop and it erased her run. I did copy the timeslip though. Lots of fun, but very crowded night. Took 3 hours to run twice.

Car runs excellent with the new wheels and drag radials. Thanks to Jurrian at www.modbargains.com who hooked me up. Check his prices guys and his beyond superior customer service..

PS- the corrected times if you take out the crappy DA are 11.7@ 119mph.

Promo Shots

Worked on some promo shots of the girls this weekend. Looking to start racing to raise cancer awareness for their Sister Macey who is Maranda's (darker hair) identical twin. I think the shots look incredible. What do you think?

Maranda qualifying for the bracket races this weekend. Her best was a 12.5 at 112mph. The DA on this run was 7100', which is horrible. If you translate her time it's 11.5 @ 121mph.
