Had a lot of fun last night with tomster and everyone else that was there. I suppose I should get new license plates "ZL1 KLR", sorry tom . Ill post up some slips from when me and tom ran together after I get off work or if I figure out how to do it from my phone ill do it before. One run tom had me beat and then hit 2nd going to 4th and I passed him before the line. My best was 12.11 @ 118.

Finally found my cars sweet spot. Or I should say, finally got enough clutch to get to my cars sweet spot. Its all the way up at 5500 launching it, I thought I was going to blow my tires off the first time but it squated hard and wasted no time getting out of the dig. Summit got a new timing system and they only have the start line, 1/8th and 1/4 set up so no 60 foots to really go off though. Had a few 12.1X passes, so close to that 11.9X pass I want

Clutch works a LOT better now, how ever on of the Summit guys told me he seen sparks coming out right by the flywheel during one of my burn out and the Summit guy handing out ET slips said he seen some sparks at that end of the track so hopefully it turns out to be a non-issue.

Edit: I believe we both ran our fastest on this pass, I know for sure I did and If tom didn't it was right with his PB

Hopefully working. I had an interview with Florida Department of Agriculture plus submitted another application with them and one with Ohio Department of Agriculture.
Fingers crossed that one of the jobs comes through. Congrats on finishing school-- it's a big relief and an accomplishment for sure!

This is the first thing my mom's ex taught me when he was teaching me how to drive. NEVER trust a passenger, etc! Some of the best advice he ever gave me.

This guy showed up too. I think he's important, I've seen him on TV a few times.

Wow. And I thought there were a ton of people at my graduation from U. of Cinci years back.

One of the anesthesiologists in my OR was there... he said some lady let out a blood curdling scream about 10 mins after Obama got off stage. Apparently she saw a mouse and caused a huge commotion.

That's why I skipped my UC graduation. I sat through my brother's small Thomas More graduation ceremony and that was bad enough. No way I was gonna sit through mine at UC.

My parents said it was a squirrel.

We thought someone got shot or something.
