After a few weeks off, she was in the finals again tonight! Her lights were better than ever! .516, .518, .525, .590 (other car red lit) .539. and finally a .555? (haven't seen the t/s) in the final against a S/P (electronics) car with throttle stop.

The E car threw her 'cause she caught him early but then he flew by and backed into her at the stripe. Also our dial was a little agressive since it went 10.79 the round before but as soon as she got back to the lanes it was time to go. I think the lack of cool down caused her to run a 10.83. That's three final round appearances lately on Wednesday nights, one of these times will be the icebreaker!

I'm a proud papa.

p.s. The car was dialable too! Thanks to the consistant 60'ers from the CalTracs and Alex's 'glass monoleaf springs. 1.43-1.44 60'ers all night long with little 10-26 MT slicks.

now see i dont know this "holman moody" guy, but i have heard of "mellisa" from steve66. what i want to know is has mr. moody ever heard of mellisa and would he be talking smack if he had? how many guys here want their son to end up with a girl just like this? id be proud to give him away at the wedding but i would still cry when the 408 left the parking lot.
