Ocala, Fl Wannagofast 1/2 mile event, Oct 19th and 20th.

I saw in the feed someone say it wasn't standing based on them not starting where the marker flags were placed. Someone else stated that the flags were for rolling starts and the dirt marked the start of the 1/2. I have no clue other than that. I do think that if I get my map 4 this record is in reach. Maybe next time it'll be more than just me and Derrick.

We needed all the help we could get. It sucked trying to do it all by ourselves.

I messaged Seb, he confirmed it was standing start.

For me it's not about the record, it's the hunt.

I’m sure there were plenty stories floating around about your ~Z~

Probably were from pizzed off people, driving big 6-figure+ rides

A lot more stories + a lot more help with the prep work

Ya know in all this even I have failed to give credit to the guy driving the G37S Coupe. He actually did good figuring he broke into 130s and definitely wasn't turbo.

I am done. Ya'll have fun spending that money.

Most of mine are an envelope but I don't ever think about adding them up or even look at them. Once I buy something I'm done unless I need to return it.

I keep my receipts for a while, then toss. The big stuff I remember. Because of the shock. The little stuff, not so much. But that little stuff adds up really fast.

At some point it really doesn't matter anymore. It is just part of what I love to do and it doesn't impact me in being a responsible husband. I take car of stuff that matters first and the car is my sprinkles on the cake for getting to where I am at in my life and I will not apologize for that!!! Haters can simply go fuuck themselves!!!!!!!!
