The other side of the story!
First off for those in the race I offended im very sorry but you need to here my side of things before you judge in on things.
1st off I did not know I was going to come to the Viper race until last Wednesday. I got a call from Matt asking me to take the car down to Florida to Dyno and race it to prove to all the people that bashed him over and over about the car not making the power and saying the car would never make it down the track and that it was also a ticking time bomb. So I decided to take it down there on last minute notice to prove Undergroundracings work.
I had no idea of the rules. I just wanted to go there to get some track time and to put some Dyno #s down. I will get to the Dyno results later. They are all facts that DR. Roof does not want you to here. They are all facts that can and will be posted. Im sure you will see my point of view!
Back to the title issue. I did not know anything about that rule until it was time to race. I went to the driver meeting before the street tire race started and Dr. Roof asked if I was Matt Yates? I said no you know im not. He only meet me the day before and new Matt was not coming. He even chatted with Matt before we left and said he would not be there and if he wanted to race his car Kevin would be there driving it. Anyway at the driver meeting he said <<if it was not my car I need to LOAD IT UP! >> We had come there from ten hours away and all we wanted was to get some time runs in! He made it seem like we could not run the car period. He did not say anything about just running for times. So from there I called Matt and asked him to let me take owner ship of the Viper so I could get some track time and ETs. I was not aware of and winnings or etc. Even on the 9.70 pass before I ran it I was told if I went faster then in the 9.90s I would be eliminated. The run before that one it ran a 10.00 with no hook. When I left on the 9.70 pass I knew I would brake out the moment they car launched so hard but I was not worried about the race or braking out because I was there for fastest BLOWER ONLY ET and I got it using no type of injection. Water, meth, horse piss or what ever else you can inject into them.
To the other racers there im truly sorry if I offended you in any way. Most of the ones I talked to said they didn't blame me and said Dr.Roof was just intimidated by me and was a jerk! And also stated if it was not as fast as it was he wouldn't have said anything about it. Not only that there were a few Viper owners sneaking other drivers in there car but nothing was mentioned about that because they were in a slower groupe and not in Dr. Roofs!
