Want to say thanks to Brooks for putting on another great cruise... I had a great time and ended up getting kicked off for running too fast with no cage. I'm getting one soon, just waiting for JamesB to get me in... I had a great time and the car ran pretty good and nothing broke so that's always good.

Yup, just wish I'd have figured out that on of my slicks had WAY too much air in it. Ended up with a best of 7.31@ 95.21 w/a 1.78 60', was getting ready to make a pass with the tires at 13.5psi when the announcer said they were closing. I was bummed since I was thinking they were staying open till 12. Was nice to meet a bunch of you guys and I had a great time (and drove her home without issue). Thanks!

You guys are very welcome, it was good to see everyone again - and meet some new faces, James. That car is running good man.
They closed earlier than anticipated becuase of how we (DFWMustangs) normally operate. Historically we have a strong turnout and a lot of passes throughout the middle of the 'event' and towards the end of the night the lanes are EMPTY, and the track is going away faster and faster.. All that coupled with having a full staff sitting around doing nothing - it's a waste of money for them to keep it 'open' for 'nothing'..They did ask me if we wanted to keep running, or shut 'em down at 10P - I told them, if there's no passes happening, to shut them down. When I turned and looked the last few times, there was 2 cars in the lanes one time, and 1 car the next. Not to mention, the wind turned from a decent tail wind to a pretty strong cross wind, not the best racing conditions.
Someone actually stopped me in the staging lanes at about 10P and said, "I thought it was open till 12!!" As I turned and looked at the EMPTY staging lanes, I said there's no one running!! He came back with, "if I would have known it was closing at 10, I would have stayed home"
