Gee I hope to do that this year but not as high.

What fell off the car and how much damage did it do when it landed?

Damn that was a hard *** launch. Definately going to need to work on keeping that down. That has to be really rough inside there.

Yes, that is Byron dragway in Byron, IL. No, it is not down hill the shut down area is up hill and gives the illusion of the the track being down hill. I dont know what all he broke, but we pushed him off the track.

The track is a very nice track, plenty of 200mph+ cars use that track. The facilities could stand alittle work though.
