Speeds in S/G

Travis Salter · 01-23-2009, 12:00 AM

my car weighs 2830 with me in it. i have a 572, not a cheap motor by any means. Oh, and by the way, in Div. 4 i am one of the big heavy hitters at every race i show up at, its not as hard as you think to judge 15 or 20 mph on someone, it just takes practice and confidence.

If your a big heavy hitter shouldn't you have a double diget # ?

My bad, I guess I have been away from s/st longer than I thought.

BB thanks for the lessons.

” Heavy Hitter” I do like the nick name…..but!........as far as being one?

Tune me up a bit here "Heavy" .

I'm checking out this:

it appears that you didn’t even make the NHRA top 20 in 08 even for the folks that did only show at 2 races.

IHRA Hot Rod 08 ? I don’t even find your name?

I’m not a heavy hitter, but I did stay a Holiday Inn Express” once and I do know some “heavy hitters” that hang out here at “Class Racer” and if they got “called out” they could back it up with some statistics.

So we'll will be waiting and...

I'll take my coffee ……….~~HOT & BLACK~~ ....whooops let change that wording.

I'll take my coffee without cream and sugar.

(I dont want to get " Mr. Colorfull excited thinking about Mrs Colorfull and her giving me and earfull for putting crazy azz thoughts in his head. it's a cabin fever thing)

Ps As far as me being a "Heavy Hitter" ?

I’m half way there

and yes I can back it up and so will some folks here............ However I'm still working on the hitter part.

I couldn't pass this one up......

Did they miss print your points from last year? you ran two Divisionals and won one round? I guess going 150, and being cocky (confident as you put it) makes you a Hitter...

The mile per hour is a burned out subject, bottom line it is an advantage... if you are slow (and I am) figure out how to dial and race the finish line....
