We hung out and had a great time with some old friends and made some new ones !! On Sunday my first 2 runs out of the gate were my best runs ever. I ran a 11.16 @ 128mph and a 11.18 @127mph, but didn't do much after that. I missed a shift during the Top 16 qualifying and then when it came to bracket racing I red-lighted !!

Thanks to all the men/women of the H-Town Camaro Club and at ARD for the hospitality that was shown to all of us out-of-towners. We really felt welcomed.

Thanks to Hennessey for letting us use the track. The prep at the track was nothing short of pure awesomness!! I look forward to coming back down for next years event !!

My hats off to everyone involved with this event, I couldn't have had a better time !!
Your ride was looking good and runnig strong... I was sure I would be handing you a trophy and some green backs!!

That's some good MPH. Easy 10 second pass with a decent 60'

Track prep was good, but I still have stock drivetrain so I am trying to baby it out of the hole and it costs me. Upgrades are gonna be in place before next year's event for sure !!

Here is a video from Youtube of my second best run at TKN III

hey, I know you were dealing with car issues, but it was a pleasure to meet you this past weekend... Glad ARD and Co were able to get you back on the road and headed home....
