Hi all,
Whew... What a weekend! I had a blast and it was really nice meeting several new faces and old ones as well... What can I say this Lightning group is the greatest bunch there is!!!!!!! I think all the Stang and other Ford owners have to be jealous of the tight nit group we have! The view Saturday night at Hooters and the parking lot next store was too cool!!!!! The weather cooperated with us all weekend until the very end So it certainly could have been worse as far as that goes... I'm still waiting to hear what happened with the outcome of street Lightning with the rain delay????? If someone knows lets post it!!!!!! As for Pro Lightning it was Myself vs. Spiro's hot running G2 with our near identical qualifying passes 12.17 -12.19 (nice run Spiro that kicked butt!) It was pretty much a heads up race between he and I in round one and my ol' Gen 1 managed to stay just ahead of his Gen 2... (Sorry to have to do that to ya Sprio!) 12.1x to his 12.2x... Round two (The finals) I was up against Paul's mean black Gen 1, I went on down the track full boogie watching my mirror and lifted about 10 ft before the line hoping for the best... Looked to me like I crossed the line about a hair ahead of him but was hard to tell since he was going by so fast! Turns out we both broke out but I was a little closer to the index so I got the win... He went 9.99 @ 136 to my 11.92 @ 114
Thank you PSP and the NLOC for making all this possible!!! Also my thanks go out to Sprio & Paul for giving me such a good run! I believe that Paul is probably the first and only person to put a Lighting in the 9s on the "Motor"!!! Both of these guys our class acts and my hats off to them!
