  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    A couple of cars about to see deep into the 12.0's (and the Ranger that provided the life-blood for the 12.008 pass).

    Then there's the white car turning black rubber into white smoke... with 100+ lbs in the trunk to keep from getting kicked off the track.

    You'd think it'd pull the tires a foot off the ground with all that weight out back.

    The tire sure took some abuse! :TU:

    I do know that both Rick and John have video of a 12.0X pass each. Hopefully Rick can get it converted to a digital file and find someone to host the video.

    Good job guys!

    The wheelchair pulled off a monster holeshot, carrying the front rubber for several feet, but the deep gearing caused a severe forearm cramp at around the 1000 foot mark, allowing the GTO to slip by.

    Steve, Jerry, the pictures look great. It was great having you guys out there for support. Jerry will you be able to attend the Pac. Rac. Ways BOP? Hope you can can make it. Same for you Steve. If not, I understand. Also thanks to Scotty, Bill, Dave Miller, Dave Knutson for Buick support. I promise not to get too anxious at the tree at Pac. Rac. ways. :Dou: Rick, It 'll be fun to bang some gears at the next race. I'd camp out there at the track if they'd let me. I also want to thank Dean Kaufman of Leading Edge Tech. His support and sponcership make both of these BOP events possible. :TU: Hope to see all you guys at Pacific Raceways on the 28th. :TU: John Biggs:grin:
