60-70mph roll, i hooked third. swift didnt. i pulled a car on him not even. and it was dead even from there 120 up to about 160+ i was ahead when it was over technically, but even a 10 degree increase in temp could have flipped the situation around the exact opposite way. i think with swift on d/r’s it would have been a dead nuts tie. honestly the race couldnt get any closer. ---

yeah… i knew mike was gonna ask me to race, and i’m glad he did we got that out of the way… and i’m still alive to talk about it. I know i’m an idiot, but after all the 5th gear pulls i’ve done i’m starting to think i’m luckier and luckier that nothing has happened yet. As i went flying by the U turn between exit 4 and 2 at probably… 170? i started thinking about what could happen at those speeds… expecially since when i shift into 4th my axles rub on my wishbones when i break loose and it makes a terrible noise, my window moldings unhinge and almost fly off at 130+ (thanks john for grabbing it), and my tires are mix-matched - not to mention the read drivers side has a screw stuck in it. I’m def learning (hopefully soon enough) that i need to keep those kind of speeds at a minimum. It was fun, and i will probably do it again… but not as much as i thought i would. ---

vlad hardly got to see it and he was on his bike. haha… we needed alot of room to rip… and as we were getting back on 87 the 2nd time there was a cop like a minute ahead of us. i didnt see him pull off but i guess he did. Def a good race, we are prolly gonna do it again both on DR’s… but we could also just do it at the track. next time on video for sure though, its crazy to go WOT a have someone still be hanging with you, something me and mike dont get to see much. :lmao ---
