One thing that sucks is that it wasn't exactly clear when the racing counted and when it didn't. Some of the fastest times were AFTER the break, which were not counted in for medals.

Jason with the silver tC with graphics ran in the 8's on one of his runs, but it didn't count. That's probably my only gripe about the event. A lot of people weren't aware of that until awards.

I didn't race, but the tech portion was sort of a joke. I didn't see anyone even get their engine bays checked!

I wish I could have raced lol, for some reason all the turbo tC's were having problems at the same time lol. Sliver07 and I stayed up pretty late working on our cars, Browndogg was having a few issues, tCdaily had an unfortunate incident, and Chris Cabrera couldn't make it!

Would have been nice to see so many tC's with different turbo kits in action! Hopefully everyone will be done by the summer triathlon I heard about...

The tech's came up to me and the other 2 in charge of the Tech Area and asked us,
"Would you guys like me to be a totally *****, a little hard, or really nice?"

Of course we said, "Really nice." just in case one of you may have something that
would have not let you participate.

Thanks to Scion Evolution and Longo Toyota for a great event and all the officials at Irwin dale speedway as well, I was very happy with my runs, very consistent, I won 3rd reaction: .529, 3rd ET: 9.540 and 3rd top speed: 77mph, I'm might be off on some of the #'s cause I don't have the slips on hand right now, I love my s/c set-up and i only wished I would have had my 9.5lb pulley in for this event, congrats to all the race and show winners .
