I had a great time, and popped my cherry among the best!
I ended up doing several 12.9x @ 107.XX with my meager A4 Vert w/ stock 2:73's, a Vararam, Borla X-pipe into B&B Bullets, and a Jet Performance Stage II Module. All on Runcraps @ 25 psi, and almost at the wear marks. Surprisingly, I wasn't slipping with them, so now it's time for more power!
By next year I'd like to ditch the Module for an ECS tune, after getting 3:42's, Longtube headers, Z06 or Fast intake, and maybe a stall converter. It would be nice to get in the elevens next time.
Scott thanks for telling me about this event, and I'm very sorry for your bad luck. I hope you get it straightened out quickly.
