Took my junk to the track yesterday.
I was surprised when my son ask me if I would like to join him and some friends yesterday when they went to a car show at the drag strip. He just got a WRX and there was going to be an import show. I am not into imports but the WRX is a nice little car and the important thing is an 18 year old invited his dad to go along. So I have been itching to try out my new drag radials so I thought why not. Well this car show was not like any I usually attend. I am not being prejudice in any way I very much believe in to each his own but I am just reporting what was there. The show participants were younger than what I normally see at a car show and about 60% latino. Pot was being smoked at just about every car, The music was so loud that you could not tell one song from another and the police were called to break up a fight. On the other hand I was very happy with how my junk ran and enjoyed watching the racing with my son. So all in all a good day. The junk ran mid 11's @ 129MPH with an easy launch and me lifting early (Me bragging again ). The best was my reaction time was .002 not bad for an old fat guy and his junk. I took it easy because if I broke into the 10's they would not let run again.
