Took her to Memphis and won the Roadkill $3,000 Hooptie Challenge on July 15th. This is an event where your car has to be judged by the Roadkill hosts and found to cost less than $3,000. Then you are paired off and run a ladder style elimination on a sportsman tree.

The weather was brutal, with ambient temps around 90 degrees and very high humidity. We came prepared, with our usual jug of Sunoco 104 octane unleaded race gas and thankfully we did not change to the 10% pulley yet. I was able to chop down the tree on almost every pass and take down every opponent, my worst reaction time of the day was a .151. As we got near the final round we were having to hot lap and the car got a little overheated. The performance dropped a little but she never really missed a beat, as my last pass was a 14.02. We are going to check the head gaskets in any event to make sure they are ok.
