I knew what you meant and was kind of thinking the same thing!

Wish I could have gone.

What were your times ProjectDNA?

I remember seeing your car at TP2 and thinking what could have been since almost got those same wheels. Your car looks sick!

I just checked through all 18 of my drag racing time slips - we never raced. You were spared.

thanks.

it admittedly looks great, but running 235/35/19's in the rear (even with legendary PS2's) will not do your E/T's any favors - they didn't for me. hope this dissuades any residual "what could have been" sentiments.

oh, and your graciousness is greatly appreciated.
