And we are looking for what you think Mr. Hubie Fuh will run in the M600. Here are our guesses so far:
- Todd…10.27
- Michael…10.35
- db…10.4 @ 130-ish MPH
Gabe’s guess…10.20
Now, give us yours. Whoever comes closest WITHOUT going over wins a brand spankin’ new WRR t-shirts!
Update…Upon hearing about the contest, Fireball Tim has decided to add to the pot! Whoever gets closest wins a WRR t-shirt AND a FIREBALLED! Shift knob! WOOT!
db will actually be going out to the track and should have results as they happen.
Good luck!

All y’all can guess the same time as one of us since we can’t win.
Also, to allow more people to play you can guess the same time as someone else and, in the event of multiple people with the same winning time guess, we will have a drawing for the prizes.

10.54 for the sake of the prizes, but I will not be disappointed when I don’t win!
Dave
October 19th, 2006 at 4:30 pm
I’ll guess that they won’t quite match their earlier results and make a 10.67 second run.
October 20th, 2006 at 7:14 am
10.57
October 20th, 2006 at 7:25 am
Lots of good guesses! Ths cars lookin good so there should be some good action to see this weekend, and we are bringing 2 CARS THAT WILL BE RUNNING!
Come see the insanity. Gates open at @7:am racing begins @ 9:am
Tony, that would be an awesome # I hope you win the shirt and the knob!
October 20th, 2006 at 1:15 pm
Being that I’m banned from WRR competitions for the time being (and happily so… loving the armrest!) and can’t win anyway here’s my whacked out prediction:
The team will have an unaccounted for complication and land a 18.65 with it’s first car. However, this complication leads the team to investigate the second car for similiar problems, and through the magic of mechanics achieve 10.36!
Now, if that actually happens I expect no winnings… but my wish would be for Gabe to post a retrospective story on MF about the legacy of Liquid Yellow.
Cheers!
October 20th, 2006 at 2:04 pm
hmmmm…maybe we can let Wingnut win this one.
That would be an awesome read right there!
