Jamie (GTP_munky from w-body.com) and I went down to St. Thomas Dragway (Sparta) today. It threatened to rain a bit, but thankfully it cleared up to be a decent day. :icon_cool:

I forgot my camera, but luckily Jamie doesn't leave home without his.

On the way down.

Nice runs! Your TGP looks good(as usual!). :icon_mrgreen: Thanks for bumping be down a spot. :laugh: I'll probably take both of mine to the track when fall gets here(unless we have some decent weather before then, it's typically 85-90* and humid as shit on track days right now, so it's like running at 3,000-4,000ft elevation).

BTW, did Jamie run any better than last time?

Thanks Matt. Luckily it wasn't humid at all, and it was only 20 degrees C out.

Jamie couldn't get his car under a 15.9 this time (was running 15.4's)....so now he's on a mission to tune it up, and get his old times back.
