Larry. on awards night i was at the small gathering in Ely where there were about 15 people or so. somebody brought the results in after the dinner and me and my navigator were stunned when we found out that we came in 2nd. we were 90% sure that we were within a .25 second of the perfect time and figured we would at least make the top ten. but to get 2nd and lose 1st by a mere .07 of a second we were thrilled. normally i wouldn't be happy about getting 2nd in anything but since this was our 1st time running the silver state we were more than satisfied with our result. arty
the winner of the 130 class was there too and when he found out that he took 1st in that class he started running up and down the stairs he was so happy.
i will be back in may running my viper in the same class again. i will have my 3.33 gears in by then too so hopefully i will be able to get a little higher speed in the high noon shootout. i wish i could say that i will be driving a ford GT but i am still a couple years out on the aquisition of one. until then i will just keep living vicariously through the fordgtforum.com :cheers
