    Spent a great past couple of days here in Bradebnton Fl with some of the nicest folks in the lx community!!! was a blast to get to put more names and faces together, all the while beating the snot out of our cars.

    for the record, i set some new personal bests today......

    11.31 et
    123.45 mph
    1.65 60'

    and the best part is........ my little ol' stock block 6.1 held up to the abuse of close to 20 passes today and did not even give me a hint of issue!!! even nicer....... i did not get knocked out in the first round of eliminations in the unlimited class!!! lol

    Awesome runs Chris. You sure that's that same blower Ron had? LOL

    I'm glad you had a good time brother. Those 60' times are bad ass as well!

    Chris congrats man I was getting updates from Harrison and Luis at the track yesterday, I know Luis set a new NA record for the Jeeps with a 11.41 with his 426 Jeep. From my understanding yesterday was probably the best day of the year to run at Brandenton. I dont know if you heard or saw Chris lifted the front of his jeep and broke some part of his driveline thats crazy, Harrison ran a PB of 12.3. You all kicked some ass and definately represented the Hemis in Florida.

    Great job Chris. We definately had a good time in Bradenton, can't wait to do it again soon.

    Chris and I had 2 grudge runs at the end of the day. I took the first and he took the second. We're going have to have a time breaker soon :)

    Again, congrats on your PB's. Chris failed to mention he took out Lou in first round of elimins. Yes Lou the guy who drives the red magnum with 1025hp

    Chris, what was the predominant rear tire/wheel set up people were running?
    What do you run?
    What was the fastest N/A 426 e.t./mph and does anyone know anything about the build?

    Congrats on the smack down of Lou...hehe!
