I sure can!

Mr. Hagburg at Mile High Nationals. He had me beat and I knew it was coming!

I have spent MANY HOURS working on my car and after my .006 tree to his .112 he got out of it at the end of the track and still won!

Feel free to take a look here.

This has done nothing but make me want to work harder on my car and make it faster for our next heads up race.

Like I have posted before I know of many older combos out there with 1.00+ under the hood but they make sure they protect there combos. Meanwile some of the guys in the newer cars slaughter the combos at every race.

So yes, there are more then some would like to think.


I may be new but if you don't think I spend long hours working on my car my wife and son can tell you other wise!!!

IMO if new cars race on the ladder they must live under the same AHFS everyone else does and every race I run this is the case. Indy is the only one they toss it of for the FSS car's and I understand why people get mad.
