Re: trying to get on pass time

Hey Kevin, I wasn't trying to be a smart azz.
Here's the results from wallace calcs. It's just an example of what I was talking about.
Your 1/4 Mile ET is 9.16 seconds computed from your vehicle 1/8th ET of 5.78 seconds.
Your 1/4 Mile MPH is 146.32 MPH computed from your vehicle 1/8th MPH of 118 MPH.

Re: trying to get on pass time

They haven't run any of the new season yet. I didn't see the ad but I was told the new season starts mid July. They filmed 11 episodes in Montgomery!

Re: trying to get on pass time

They started airing shows from Montgomery tonight so I could be on at any time. They filmed 11 episodes in Montgomery so who knows! I was the eighth car on the show. I was right behind a red camaro with grey graphics. The combo round on my show was a pair of sisters in junior dragsters.
