Arm Drop Live w/ Rich Christiansen
#22
Arm Drop Live is the same thing as Pinks All Out. It is broken down into smaller groups. We had 8 classes of 16 cars. 128 cars alltogether in the show. $1000 to the winners of each class.

You know I did playa. I wouldn't of went if I was leaking on da track my man. All BS aside, I put a Victor Jr. on it and the new set of gaskets. All is good on da home front. I made a total of 5 passes this weekend and it is still holding up.

The event I went to wasn't filmed professionally. It will not be televised at all. Rich is trying to work the kinks out of this style racing, get it going good and I think it is going to replace some of the Pinks episodes. He also told us at the drivers meeting that his ultimate goals was out of 8 classes of Arm Drop Live competitors, he has 8 winners. All 8 winners go at it, with $1000 of each winners money goes into the pot, negotiate links with the faster/slower cars that you are paired up with and run them out untill there is only one man standing. In which, the guy who prevails will ultimately win the big money. Kinda of a cool idea, knowing they should monitor the times on the cars to prevent cheating.

Check out this video, its kinda long, only two passes on it. The first pass is Saturday morning qualifying run. I run a 12.03 @ 112mph. They shut the track down right as I was going up there for some unknown reason, 2 minutes of wasted film, those bastards,LOL. I did get outran, by that guy. He had a stroker windsor car, he ran an 11.20 and I ran a 12,03. We both knocked down some hella reaction times, mine was .024 on that pass. The second run shows my actual Elimination run that was protested and got me knocked out of the show, I run an 11.92 @ 113mph on that pass. Please dis-reguard my wifes expressions on the video, as she has stood by me and pushed me to finish this build. She was just as excited as I was to see that win light show up in my lane on that second pass. Thanks

I don't see why you were mad at the Bow tie boy for whining..... I mean you ran to fast for the class, he had a right. I would have done it.
Pinks ***'d up by putting your car in a 12.30's class when it was running faster in other runs. You were bound to eventually out run your class time.

If you read my post, you will see that I wasn't mad at anyone. I just think the S-10 driver is a little Biotch. If the tower said the race was good, he should of took his whiney self back to his trailer.
