    Just got back from the Division 7 ET Finals. About 7 or 8 Mavericks there. Also saw 73 Goose again. Can't wait to see his new ride next year.

    Anyway, Not sure how many cars were in my class, but we went 7 rounds. I lost on a double breakout in the final round. Hate to feel too disappointed when it paid $1k for runnerup and contingency money will also be coming in. :)

    Don congratulations for the runner up I was glad to see you make it to the finals I was hoping you could of take out leroy but you did a great job just getting to the finals. I did not do so will I broke the orange diesel truck in the sportman first time pass on friday so I run make 95 f-250 and redlite in the first round on sunday. In the maverick I got a little loose in the first round of superpro and could not run the number and the dragster went right bye me. But I had a great time

    I just need to learn how to use the brake pedal. Brain fade in the finals. I've been running that pass through my mind all day long. :)

    Don't spend too much time on self abuse over the outcome Don. That was quite the marathon and it could easily have gone the other way - you'll get another chance my friend. :tiphat:
