Oh yeah, I had a freakin' blast. I'm just gonna have to remember next time to go with 3/4-1 tank of gas instead of a half tank. I found out the hard way that the drive there is 1/4 tank, back is 1/4 tank, and gas at the track costs $7 a gallon minimum. hahaha
Now that I've seen what my car can do, I'm in even more of a hurry to start doing stuff to it to make it faster. haha
The first run that I did, I thought that I was going to pass out, my heart was beating so fast. I mean normally, the only "racing" that I do is flooring it to about 55 or 60 when some Civic pulls up next to me at a light and revs his fart-cannon exhaust, but flooring it all the way up to 95-100? What a freakin' rush! haha
OH! Anyone want to hear some stories? Unfortunately, I didn't get any videos of this stuff, but oh well-- From the time that I got there until the time that I left, there were 3... er... "mishaps."
The first one was a Chevy Nova that didn't look like it belonged there anyway. It blew an upper radiator hose and sprayed the track with antifreeze. That took about 20 minutes to clean up.
Next, it was a late 60s Camaro. Beautiful burn out, but I think it had a little too much power than it should've had. Tree flashes green. Camaro floors it and does a wheelie. Here's the odd part: the body kept going, but the rear axle just kinda stayed where it was. Yupp, the Camaro had so much power that it jumped right off the rear axle. haha
And then I saw a car that I reeeaaally wanted to race (unfortunately, I didn't get to). Ya know, luxury car vs. luxury car-- I saw a Mercedes. Then I pulled closer and thought nah, he'd whoop my ass for sure. Unless I'm mistaken, someone had decided to take mommy's brand new AMG S65 to the track. Twin turbo-d V12 engine producing right around 600hp. But is that enough?
No, never.
He just HAD to go and hook nitrous up to it. Light turns green, he and the 5.0 Mustang next to him take off, and I notice the Mustang's pulling ahead? What? How can this be? BANG! Smoke. The Mercedes is braking? Yupp, the Mercedes sure broke alright. He hooked the nitrous up improperly and blew the engine. That's $150,000 down the drain. HAHAHAHA
