Talking Re: Bad reaction !!

That is a good example of making a comment without knowing ALL the facts! Sorry Manny, I'll give ya a hug next time I see ya! Jim


"LOL..That's either a brilliant funny haha, or you are a total blithering idiot."

This is a first for me! I don't think I have ever been accused of being both in one post before! Jim

lol..I had a feeling that may have been the case..especially you being from FLA., and it was no accusation! ..Cheers.

..On a sidenote- I was .020 and dead on in round 2 of the shootout, and was junk to my man's .003 and spitting brake dust in my face..rough crowd.

With roughly a second head start if you are looking at the other guy then you've already lost, unless he goes red!! How can you question a -.005 red light??? Just a tough break on Manny's part, that's all! Congrats on your runner up!! Damn, he lost in the 9th round........he sucks!!!

Question Re: Bad reaction !!

I was reading some of the results on this race at Drag Race Central.Truly some amazing packages for a "footbrake" race.
Are any two-steps,trans brakes,or buttons allowed in this,or is it truly "footbrake"?

......What a way to LOSE A BIG $$$$$$$$$ race !
John, I know you are just playin' with us! I think it's much better to be runner up than first round loser. Heck, if you make it to the 3rd round you've beaten 3/4 of the other cars right? And its not like you own 4 of the 16 cars entered

Pure footbrake.

My *losing* runs of the weekend were
.009 and .03 over
.013 taking .001
-.001 red
.023 taking .008
.033 taking .007
.020 dead-on with a zero
-.003 red, dead-on with a 2
.039, under .003
.017, double breakout by .001
-.010 red

Yah. It was like that. Lord, that was like two months worth of racing. Glad that's out of the way!

Manny used to terrorize the S/C class at Bradenton with his Fairmont. Door vs dragster, and he would win quite often footbraking against them dragsters. And he is a nice guy to boot.
