Default New PB.........

With my big heavy family SUV, which was loaded down with stuff from the trip.

It was a bad day for the Z, as the track was very slippery until the last run, where they treated it finally, and then closed after I bogged on a 13.4 second pass, I expected to spin the tires launching on. I will hit 12's on street tires!!!!!!

Anyway, my left front brake started making noise, so I backed off and ran my family SUV 4 times for fun. I spun the tires each time, as I didn't really want to do a burn out with it. I was lining up with a guy in running a Neon SRT-4, when he backed down at the last second, as he had been running driver limited low 15's.

All four runs were close, and I could have seen a 14.6-14.7 if worked at the launch a little, but hey who cares, it was a 5,300+ lb SUV running high 14's.

It's stock and had around 100 lbs of extra trip weight.

The girl is one of my daughters, and she commented on video before one of the runs, "Mommy is daddy racing your car?", and she said," Yes, he is being funny.".
