    Talking Pitt Raceway Park

    So, went there for the first time today. I found it pretty kick azz!
    I had never been on a drag strip before, only a speed way in cali. Saw some amazing cars with amazing times.

    There was this Honda there though that was ugly as sin but I think the only car that beat it was a Cobra? Don't really remember. It was insanely fast though. Took me and a few others by surprise. It was fantastic though. Got a kick out of the dragsters. Any who, I'm looking forward to going out there again soon. Hopefully Saturday.
    Also, Good job Tom on your new time.


    Hope to see some of you at the track
    !

    I find when I happen to go to a TnT that there is always something that suprises me at how it runs. Couple lil Honda's that run fast.

    I went to TNT last week...nothing real suprising there. One new black 5.0 went 11.40's or 11.50's. Took my son for his first trip....he loved it.

    As hard as that is to belive, I've been known to give in to peer pressure ;)

    I thought about staging off the 60' clock and launch off the tree in the rear view mirror.

    I saw 3 5.0's there. A few GT's. What really surprised me is there was a G6 there and it blew away this Cobra. Only once but I was confused as hell and really would like to know what was under the hood of that G6. I did have a Camaro Concept (Till it was repossessed, long story) but they can have it. There was one there yesterday and it ran like ass. Bad times and not to mention the guy had some pretty slow reaction times. I cant wait to get a stang. -_- Love my truck, so would rather have a stang.... Still, very very impressive when it came to the cars that weren't exactly street legal. :D
