Talking I'm BACCCKKK

Hey guys and gals, after two long weeks..i finally get to get back on here. My computer's hard drive crashed..so i just went out and bought a new one. It would have been cheaper to get a new one than to get the other one fixed so here i am! To update you on some things..ran the car last night at a 1/8th mile track here and still can't get the car to hook worth a damn. It spins and hits the rev limiter the whole time. The whole night i only got it to hook and that's because i borrowed a pair of slicks from a guy. It went 4.39 171 with a 1.08 60ft. The air was cooler last night so i think that's why it hooked so well. But other than that nothing has been going on much in my boring life. But Ashley my g/f told me that her dad has diabetes really bad and the doctor doesn't give him much time..It's been a pretty rough situation so far. So keep her in mind. Her dad's a really great guy so i hope he can stay with us longer than what the doctor expects

Eric

I run a ET Street tire. Remember the car is street driven I have a good set of Mickey Thompson ET Drags in the trailer but they aren't on a rim.
