It was 1:30 when I made it back around for another shot, and when I pulled into the water box, My buddy Michael Sporrong (Swede4, BangShift) pulled up in the 2005 Silverado that Boone and I had been talking about earlier! I knew the supercharged LSX was capable of going quicker than thier 11.50 no-bar cutoff, so I figured I'd better get this one right to avoid reading his tailgate at the finish line.
I picked up 2 tenths on him in the first 60ft. clipped 2nd at 6400, drive at 6300 and then took a look to see if he was coming around. To my suprise, the little smallblock pulled exactly the same mph at the 8th and finish line as the truck. My time slip read 11.40-115.7, that would work!

Mike came by after the run and echoed my sentiments, "Darn! That was fun!"
It took me back to the earliest days, when my car buddies and I would drive our street cars to Mokan, enter the trophy class and try to race each other every time run, just kinda stripped away all tension of serious competition and got back to the bare essense of why I enjoy this sport in the first place!
