had a great time try'n 8.5s on my car this past weekend,i think 18 cars showed--mustangs,cheys,1 mopar--me.qual fri nifgt-came back sat--rolled the car out of the trailor--hit the start buttom and zzzzzzing
jacked the car up and the flywheel had broken,broke off about 15 teeth.
i was very upset but i kept my composure and prayed alot.
o'well,there will be another time to play.
