    myself and my son (the Boy) and his girlfriend ....

    Sonny took his Mustang and seemed to enjoy himself...:burnout:

    i missed 12s by 0.22

    ran a 13.21 @ 100.02
    this was at 5 PM (closing) so maybe with an 8 o'clock cooler air run i might have gotten into the 12s..:huh:

    Chris did all the driving and had a blast with the transbrake....:chirp:

    we stopped for pancakes on the way home...:yup:

    "a large time was had by all."

    thanks Mike for all the help....:Handshake
