Looking forward to seeing the Shelby at Bremie, Kent. I should be there with my black thing. I hope.

We got 11 cars through the first round, one more than all other teams combined, but the second round was a disaster as we won only 3 races. I was one of the losers and left afterward. The LS1 site is not buzzing so I presume they didn't shine either. Weather was good. There were some personal bests. Bob in the Shelby got into the 10's at 129 mph. See my sig. (mph didn't go up as I am on the rev limiter 100 ft before finish line) Not many stoppages to slow things down. Bremie gave us three practice passes before elims. We could've used you, EJ.
Well maybe Kent stuck around and will chime in on how it ended up. Who all was still in when you left did you happen to see? And man, 10.77 is cookin. You really have a talent for wringing out your combos. I wish I could have been there, trust me. This class thing isnt much fun but I gotta do it. Im still trying to find out if I will be able to ditch for the July 12th race.
Yes, I want to hear, too. Thanks for the kind words. I think I could've run 125 mph with the rev limiter out, I don't know if the ET would've improved. In round two, Jeff, Dave Carmen, Kent, and Bob all went out. We could've used the Barnetts, but they were at their daughter's graduation. Her car is running 9's and his 10's.
There's a race the 5th of July, too.
Nice to see you at the track and witness your new PB john. I had a great time. nice dial in the first round btw 
. I'll be racing with you guys for sure(once the stang is done)
Sorry I didn't follow your advice and keep up with my horrendous R/T after my first practice run even though I did race a ford in the first round of elims. I jumped the gun in the 2nd round though with a pretty hefty redlight. Oh well...
Progress on the mustang is coming slow, so I'm hoping to make at least one race this season.

You'll be a seasoned veteran by the time your Mustang is ready and you put yourself on the right team. There are several races in August.
Here's the message from Kent:
Jason Cooper (Maverick) beat Gossett in the finals! Two complete races and two FDT winners.
-Kent-
In spite of having only a few cars in the later rounds, that win should keep us well in front.
John:
Sorry that I didn't represent better!!!
I will be gone for the race on the 27th, but looks like Tucker and I can most likely make the July 5th race... We will be sure and get there earlier so that we can make the first time trail pass, and I'll do my best to remember not to leave my car in 2nd gear...
Who knows, maybe we will just bring the Notch and see what it can do on a basically stock motor...

I have a sale pending on my car and should hopefully finalize a deal EOD Monday. The sooner the better, that means I probably make a race this year in a new vehicle TBD.
