It was hard to stay in front of that big turd at Lemons South. If they hadn't turned their brakes into smoke, they might have beaten us.

I had a run on the Benz going into the long straight at CMP, I mean he was sideways and I had short shifted down to second to get under him.  Before I had hit the entrance of pit road he had caught me, passed me, and was pulling away...  That car is tough, and if they have figured it out everyone else is in trouble.

I don't see how.  The engine alone is worth thousands.

The power of DEPRECIATION ............

Yes those V8's make some good power and the automatic (assuming they still run one) is also quite strong....  I'm surprised they got it light enough to actually handle okay.....it must have!! 

Congrats on the win!!!!  Way to take an non BMW to the podium!!!
