Few years back US131 dragway decided for one season to try heads up and index racing. It tickled me because I had raced points up at Stanton in the shootout series up there for like 3 seasons, and it was a pretty good haul. This was 10.0 " real street" class that I was in up there. 4 tenths tree, yada, yada. Martin ended up having 3 events that year. I was fortunate enough to win all three of them and they paid 600 bucks to win.
At the last one, I went up to the tower to collect my winnings and my check was just 400 bucks. I asked the GM, Jason, why I was getting shorted 200 bucks. He pulled up the website and pointed out where it clearly stated that the 600 was for an 8 car qualified field in Real Street. Only 7 cars had showed up that night, thus the diminished purse. I apologized, and thanked him for pointing that out to me. When its clear, there is zero room for ambiguity.
69 Dart GTS A4 Silver All steel, flat factory hood, 3360race weight 418 BPE factory replacement headed stroker, 565 lift solid cam Best so far, low 10.30’s 1/4 1.41 best 60 foot 6.56 at 104.17

Who won what?
I won the beer drinking contest, the fun having contest, the having the most friends at the track contest, the having a full size fridge under my tent full of beer contest, The drink Keith McKellar under the table contest (twice) ,The turtle and squirrel frying contest, The ice cream eating contest, The steak eating contest, The clam eating contest and the being a a$$hole in general contest.
But Did not win absolute $hit in the drag racing contest.
I also get there Wednesday at 8:00 pm and left Monday at 4:30 am so that has to be some kind of con test win as well.
FLAME ON EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS: Matt says it's priceless and true.Ted tried hard to clean up all the crap and give the post a clean start with "official"
Bob you are right, i did say that. And i stand by it. It was very funny and priceless. But my comment does not take anything away from the people with legitimate concerns. I hope everyone gets a result they are happy with. But that is still one of the funniest things i have seen in a long time.
