So where was everybody today during the GM EFI shootout?
Man, E-town was empty. You could have gotten in a bunch of time trials. There were a lot more Impala SS and Caprice's than F-body's. The weather was decent too. I ran into Alex, Officer George and somebody I work with, that's it. There were no ricers in the area so it was great. How come nobody races anymore at the GM races?

I was going to go to that big car show down in SJ, but I stayed home and installed all the SS brake lines in the 77 instead. Either way, I wasn't going to e-town.

There were some cars probably louder than yours so you should've run it. If they kick you out(which I doubt would happen) then just park it and watch. Some of those newer Vette's are just sick the way they squat and take off.

I was told they were just picking on the EFI class because all the f-bodys had cut-out's so they were checking the F-body car's , So i just parked my car and was there to support friend's.. But i know for a fact some of the Impala's were louder than my car.... Yeah my g/f said my eye's were glowing with envy watching the Vette's take off everytime they got to end of the track she kept yelling at me don't even think about it LOL .. The next one is the same weeknd as the National's in August but i think alot of us should go there and support it in Oct. All of the LS-1 car's here could of made it a good turn out, If you seen some of the Impala guy's came from all over the North east to support that series

P.S I had my cut-out open 
My boss wasn't happy since I was sporting a banner as well on the hatch. Im glad someone saw my runs! Im waiting for one of my co-workers to put up the pics and possibly video of my 13.5 run. Apparently I was kicking ass on launches all day!
Insomnia, I was all over the place yesterday I would have been suprised if someone cought me! I'll be there in October, maybe by then I'll be able to cut a 12 second quarter.

I was the guy with Rick,Tommy & P.j with the Red shirt, red hat... My g/f said she think's it was you sitting on the 2nd bench with your cell phone near the staging lanes when Barry was complaining to the track people, when everything was almost over..Sound right??
my g/f took video of your run's because that was all i could recognize after seeing your car on here, Except everything vanished on her cybershot except for the last 2 race's

my GM isn't running at the moment, I'm a bad spectator and I may have been doing things that I dare not mention in a public forum

Yep that was defenitly me.
Justin, it was a saturday so you had to be "muffled" and the track was being strict about cut-outs being it was an even held by people who make them... and I work for the sponsoring company and was breaking the rules. But F* E-town. When my boss was complaining to the head lady there I heard some F'd up ******** that sounded really weak on E-towns behalf.
