Thank you Craig. You are off to a strong start and I'm confident you will break into the 10's before the years end.

Just need a few minutes to compose a new thread and not leave anyone out who contributed. As it is, I'm kicking myself for leaving out Ron from my orginal "thank you" post.
Ron, Thank You so much for wrenching and supporting our effort! My apologies for screwing up my other post.

Hey BK, no apologies needed bro it was my pleasure to help as I continue to learn more about MB after migrating from BMW. Congrats what a great run BB was so cool in the burnout.

I ran a Viper V10 ACR at the 1/8 mile we have in San Diego, and after I smoked him, about 20 people came to my car.. they were shocked

I ran a 7.4 to his 7.9.. The track is NOT preped, and run in the stadium parking lot, so it is tricky, and times do not translate to a real track.

Beating a Viper (or Z06 etc) is very thrilling
