Dan from Alabama won the auto-x with a time of 27.9, followed closely by Ryan with a 28.3.
Mid 10s was the best of the drag races. Top traps were 142 or so. Unfortunately, Mikes car had a brand new engine and a variety of issues needed to be worked out, so he never got a full balls out run in. Jack's car had the power, but launching and traction were an issue.
It was a great day, everyone had plenty of track time, and there were lots of smiles...

Re: Drag Racing Z06 Fest 2007
I was on a set of MT slicks that Tony "Holedgr" let me borrow. Tony took time to help me work on doing burnouts (which I suck at). I couldn't get enough heat in them and pretty much spun through all of 1st gear, but still managed to get a new personal best:
1.80 60'----- 11.610 @ 123.55
The auto-x was fun and everybody managed to wiggle their cars through the very short and tight course pretty quickly.
