I was going over and taking the chance that they would let me in.

I was watching the vid of the trip down there with Parish pulling the trailer, and for a second there you hear his turbo spool up and I was waiting for him to rip past the camera with the trailer in tow!!!

I have seen too many videos! OK, not really.

Well.... I really cant get enough of that truck!!!!

GOOD LUCK

I went to Bowling Green Ky today (actually I am still there) and I got to meet Parish and his "enterage" I must say they were all a super bunch of guys and his truck is just as awesome in person as it seems on here. I give those guys a big thumbs up !!! I suggest anyone who had the opportunity to check them out in Ohio or Michigan to do so-it is a great event.

Today was a little tougher !! The did not have the traction that they had at gateway

A few 10.30s and 10.40s Then they decided to heat up the nittos for the first time.(I think that some one I know sugested that *cough*) Parish did a John force style burn out past the markers locked in 4wd backed up and hooked to a 10.13.

Word is every other car was 2 to 3 tenths off of the other tracks. Jim stayed right there.

So far so good!! only two more tracks!!

Word is that wagon did a hard launch wheel stood and slamed down it might have some issues!!

Kyle should have the vids fixed by morning
