This past weekend I attended Camaro5 Fest in Valdosta, GA. It was a great event and I was runner up in the Quick 16 with a 10.63 @ 135 mph on 20's.
It was an odd race though, because qualifying was done via arm drop and racing was done on a normal tree. They didn't give any breaks between runs and I made 10 hot lap passes in the 10's.
The car I lost to in the finals was a 76mm turbo, big/little tire, caged car, so I was happy.
After the event was over, I took someone for a ride with me on a 1/4 street blast, then thought hmm.... I wonder if I could go down the track with a passenger. We pulled into the lanes, no helmets... and got waved right through.
I went 11.0 @ 132 spinning badly with a passenger.... just thought it was pretty funny. I stayed on it a bit past the finish line hence the 150 mph comment.
