We will see guys....like I said...if the timing works out right you will see me there.
On another note...I went up to North Star Dragstrip last night and ran the 1/8th mile up there with the Rice Killers event going on and some truck from Thailand that is supposed to be awesome....well it ran a 5.5 for it's very first run of the night....but then it cracked the Engine block because the Diesel fuel is different out here from Thailand ! Opps
I ran a best time of 9.120.....I know I could have gotten a 8.9 or better, but the lines were getting longer....so I decided to park and watch some of the faster muscle cars run.
Not sure on to figure out what a 1/4 mile time would be ???
Here is my fastest run.

I literally said out loud, "where are you going?" when you went past staging.
With a 9.12 @ 78.96 in the 1/8 mile, you're looking at ~14 @ ~100 in the 1/4 mile. I'd say that's about right since I didn't hear you launch your car. What was your 60'? Post up your time slip!

I'm glad I stopped by to see everybody at the meet. It was cool to see new faces and talk with some of you.
I also got to see some of my old friends Like Jake, Ilya, Q, & Stu ! Lol....didn't mean to rhyme.
Since I came late and nobody got to see my Z....I will post a pic....so if you see me driving then give me a shout out ! But I rarely drive it around during the week anymore...in any case I hope to see you guys at another meet soon enough.
And maybe some of you guys can start coming out to a few events to run your Z and see how she can handle.

PS....Chris P. I can't find the Slip from the Drag race....but I will look for it.

Here's some of my slips from that one time, it lists 1/8th mile too.
That's some pretty good times in the FX stu. 14.9 was your best? Sorry Stu lol, for asking Chris where you were right in front of your face.. self . You look so different now that you're all grown up
That Moto-X commercial vid I was telling you & chrisp about.

I was slightly confused when you asked me so I was like "uh.. Stu?" pointing at Stu.
Haha, I like that last part in the commercial.

Haha that was good. I've seen other commercials for that phone, that highlighted all the different color backs.

Sorry you didnt see any other Z's out there. We generally have a few and as many as 8 or 9.
Hope you had a good time, there are a lot of events to go this year. This calendar has all the events from all of the clubs in DFW listed. All the clubs welcome all cars so you can run with any of them.http://www.dfwautocross.com/
Also if you haven't joined the facebook page:https://www.facebook.com/groups/VQAutoX2012/
Join up and just post any events you are planning on going to. We generally will have a few Zs at most events.
The Porsche, BMW, Equipe Rapid and North tx autocross series(NTAXS) all do 8 run's so they are a little different then the SCCA style.
Hope to see ya out there. SteidZ (Scott)
