We left the track around 9:50 ish.... I didn't get home until after 10:30, so it was a rough start to the day here...
I can honestly say I have no seasonal allergies, nor have I ever. I'm allergic to poison Ivy, Sumac, etc... but nothing like pollen, dogs, cats, work, smoke, women, etc...

Hahaha, I've walked through a field of poison ivy and not gotten a thing. Doesn't affect me at all. But I get BAD seasonal allergies, I'm deathly allergic to cigarette smoke, and I'm allergic to some cats (but not my own). As for work, I'm not allergic I just don't always feel like doing it. And women ain't my cup o tea, despite the stereotypical girl-on-girl fantasy some guys have.

f'n water bottles
ya it was pulling 10-11 degrees of timing at the launch. I drove 2 hours straight to get to the track from westview, and not more than 2 minutes after arriving, theyre like "ok, go line it up to race" I was like damn, no cool down, no nothing lol. Then the best I could get was like 30 minutes in between runs.
When i did my 12.8 i had like a 2 hour cool down time
What freaked me out is, how in the hell am I bogging slipping the clutch out at 5000 rpm, and not spinning
So after looking at the logs, its the knock sensor and the timing screwing with me.
Don't race GTO's after driving them for hours lol

We stayed at PRP till they were done. I think we left there closer to 11ish? I don't remember. We went to BWW in Monroeville after that though. Then we went to Miracle Mile... and Al, Angie, and I decided to go to Mad Mex. I left MM somewhere closer to 2:30 IIRC.
