Pinks All out Dallas

[kwhite4]

Well we made the trip again this year, this time it was at the Dallas strip.
All was cool except parking or lack of. By the time all the racers were parked it left no room for watchers.
My first pass gave me 2 surprises first was a 9.98 time slip and second was I did it with no helmet. I felt like a idiot when I reached for it at the end to take it off and it wasn't there, looked over in the floor and there it laid.
Second pass gave me one surprise, I launched and blew my pass. side muffler off. still ran a 10.2
Third pass was a 9.946, no surprises, I took the other muffler before hand.
Forth pass was a 9.947, no surprises but man she was consistent.
Then I got another surprise, they picked a 9.90 class and I was in the hunt.
I was up against a 32 car field and I would be one of the 16 under dogs.
Well I came up against a fellow who had more class champion stickers on his window than John Force, so I wasn't surprised when he spanked me.
We all made our way back to the pits to put up our stuff and start on a beer and some BBQ and it seemed like the thing lasted forever, alot of people left way before the end of the show and to top it all off the fellow that won was a repeat winner, talk about luck..
All in all it really wasn't a bad experience for us we all had fun and I just might get to be on the tv this time.
