we have tracks here? honestly, there is a track in douglas & one in denver. denver is closer at about 2 hours. I really dont want to drive that far when you never know what can happen at the track.

I have lived here just over a year, and have not raced since. :cries: i bet they dont open till may. they have not updates their websites.

I am moving back to omaha soon and will be racing about 20 minutes from my house. the track there wont open till late march.

*sits and waits for march*

Bigcat, I'm probably coming out to Denver this spring or summer, if I do, you can come to the track with me. If something happens, we can take the car back to my cousin's house.

Welp, I won round 1 but lost round 2. It was close to and quite a bummer.

Lost by .030

I broke out :-( I'm learning my car and I'll be more prepared for the next one
I dialed a 13.05 and ran a 12.98 in round 2 against a vet that was going 13.33's

I normally know to get out of it but this time i couldnt because we were neck and neck and when i started to pull on him i looked over and he put the brakes on and i was like shhh!!ttt.. then i went to try to slow down but it was too late was going through the traps.

Earlier the day I was running 13.02',13.09's, 13.00's o well.

I had my best 60 foot was 1.83.

O well next bracket race is feb 7th, but the next race for me is Jan 30-31 for Arm Drop live w/ Rich from pinks its basically pinks all out, heads up
