I did it last year, I sucked haha. Did a 13.9 @ 100mph. Granted it was kinda warm that night and my car had a busted O2 sensor that may not have helped lol. I think I pulled a 2.1 or 2.2 60ft at my best?

It would be pretty late by the time we made it out there, plus I would just be watching. Maybe another time.

So, how did you do, Jenz? Was it fun?

Infamous · 05-04-2013, 09:39 AM

Cars and coffee anyone? I just got off work and might stop by.

I suck so bad. My best run was 14.9. I stalled on two launches. I deep staged on one by accident. I can't stage or launch well. But hey practice makes perfect and this was my very first time, and instead of giving up when I screwed up two times in a row I kept going till I got it right.

Too early for me.

I know that sometimes the G and Z club of Nevada attends. The Mini club also attends which is why we would go but my husband works Saturdays.

Dude, me and a group of Zs have been going there every weekend for like the past 2+ years. We get there around 8, we eat, and leave around 10.

Infamous · 05-05-2013, 04:30 PM

I know. I've had breakfast with you guys once.

I parked near the minis, the last time you guys parked there. I was tired, so I left a little early and didn't really look for you guys. I would have, but just got off from my 12 hr shift.

Ah okay. Sounds heavy. If I were you I wouldn't have even attempted to go, so props to you.

Yeah all the time. Well, I hang out with a large group of very close friends, some of whom are among the early founding members of the G and Z club, yeah. But I don't really take part in the 'Club' stuff though - I just consider them good friends. The Club also hangs out every wednesday for dinner, usually at some fast food place. I don't usually go to that. Have you caught up with them before?

I've been to about three or four meets. Didn't find them all that friendly or the meets all that fun. Think we're sticking to the mini club for now.

My first one, they waved me towards them as I meandered through the parking lot looking to find a spot. It took the burden off of trying to fit in from a social point of view. I haven't been able to hang out as much as I would like, but there is good camaraderie. I've gone to fast Lap with em and helped another move. There was an epic *** heavy bronze eagle I distinctly remember. It just screamed "Murica". Hard to find good people in Vegas, or who are willing to expand their circle.
