Very close races!! Both extremely fast too.
AMSOIL - Don't pay full price for AMSOIL, let me save you big bucks, or let me set you up with a factory direct account, but whatever you do, don't pay full price by buying directly from AMSOIL! Click here to read my own personal research into AMSOIL and why I decided to make the change myself.

"Everyone wants to live at the expense of the state. They forget that the state lives at the expense of everyone." -- Frederic Bastiat (1801-1850)

"When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty." -- Thomas Jefferson

"Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both." -- Benjamin Franklin

"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that grow up around them will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered." -- Thomas Jefferson

"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it." -- Dr. Adrian Rogers, 1931

Funny how it takes a modified Vette to kill off an old Firebird with N2O. What ever happened to the good old days when races were with 'real' fuel? :B):
