Tonight, JohnNero and Cobra25 both broke their personal bests at Palm Beach International Raceway in Jupiter, Florida (old Moroso) with blistering runs.:banana2: Cool temps were making for great HP with these stock block, Procharger and Trilogy SC's.

JohnNero - 11.48 ET @ 119 MPH

Cobra25 - 11.77 ET @ 116 MPH

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU BOTH:up::up: -

Congrats guys. At least the cold weather is good for something in Florida other than adding flavor to the strawberries. :banana2:

That makes me want to go out at about 2:00 AM tonight/tomorrow, and see how fast I can get down my street. It's supposed to be about 26 degrees here. Reba will freeze her little (Ha!) ass off, but she should be fast.

Way to go guys! Those are some nice numbers!

I also took 5 runs: 1st run- 11.77, 2ed run- 12.04, 3rd run- 11.79, 4th run-11.90, 5 th run- 11.88 . Steven J also showed up with his Marauder a little later but was still racing when we left so I don't know how well he did at the end of the evening.

Great night guys:up:. You both made me and SSM proud. OK now, John time for a roll bar. Z, time for Nitrous and a roll bar (and stripes). Need to keep this interesting as well as loads of fun. Now we are starting to rock:beer:. Next event we all need to attend, NMRA Spring Break Shootout March 7th.:banana2: We all will get some serious attention there. Plus Shermanator will be there and everyone else we can get to come and race. I will get National Marauder Drag Race Team T-shirts made for the event for us and any Marauder that races.

Congratulations to John and Zoltan, two great guys representing Florida very well !!!:banana2::bows: I think the Sunshine State Marauders may be the regional club with greatest number of S/C Marauder's and highest number of members running below 12.5...imagine if we actually had cold air down here...:D
