Hey Derek we certainly feel your pain on weight. We have the heaviest car running. On the lighter side our driver did lose about 50 pounds since the season ended. HA!!! We have the heaviest car, ran the fastest time thus far in the 9" class and have never won a single 9" race. We spent the first year slowing the car down so the tires would stick and the second year we were just snake-bit every week. With all this said, "Can't wait to do most of it again". There are few things (like the fire and the stolen trailer) we can pass on. -- 9" Madness

In reply to: Derek 's message, "Yeah shopmom some can take out that weight, but I know I can't. My car weights 3450 with driver that is with no weight added. Plus the way I look at it is if someone has to cheat win then they are pretty sorry. I think the times will stay about the same will take a low 60 to win. I just hope I Can win more races this year and get the car a little faster." on 20:18:00 11/27/07 Tue

What is the fastest 9" pass thus far? What does your car weigh? (NT) JS 15:48:14 11/28/07 Wed

5.57 @ Kennedale in 06 Season. As for our weight I really do not remember. I can tell you it's all metal and we have never had to add weight to it to make weight limit. In fact Harry calls it the heaviest b*tch on the track. Bubba or, Rickey just how much does The Mongoose 1 weigh? (NT) -- Shopmom, 07:06:01 11/29/07 Thu
