Nope....nothing changed on friday night then! It was hell trying to get paired up for hot teams. The staging lanes were basically a "hangout" for the hood up ricer crowd. Lines.... we don't need no stinkin lines!
....I did actually like walking throught there, because just once in awile you'd find a group of "yung uns" that actually had some pretty neat/fast home built rockets.
I have absolutely nothing against the younger crowd, and they certainly have some neat / fast home built rockets. The chaos at the starting line ain't all their fault. For one thing, the lanes are still not marked - Duuu! Also, just not enough starting line control - tracks fault also. In the same breath, there was one lane designated for slick cars only and announced as such. Some of the kids ignored it( or didn't know where lane 1 was ) and the track didn't police it - nor did they police the water box. From what I could see ( I sat first in line in lane #1 for a while ) the starting line personnel were just overwhelmed. Way too many people just running loose up there. After my second ( aborted) pass it was time for me to leave. On the plus side, I don't think anyone got killed. To Wildhorse - MARK THE F--KING LANES. Get a grip on the Friday night drags - - before something tragic happens. Seen some "stock tired" cars running in the 135MPH range.
Fastest 300

Good job greg, car did good in the heat. Too bad we didn't get to line up
Right back at you Tony! Did you see the times on the winners for the Heads Up Street Legal Class? 10.50's! We could have given them a good run. There are some really cool pics of your car on AZ Autoscene ( http://www.arizonaautoscene.com/ )

Hey I went 4 rounds, dialed 10.59 and ran a 59, a 61, a 59 and a 60, lost with a 10.60 on a 10.59 dial because my reaction was .081.
That's pretty awesome! Saw your car too from a distance. The track must have held up well. Know who won in the 10.99 and faster class and how many rounds?
There were 4 cars left after I went out so 6 rounds total, the dragster won.
