June 28, 1998 - NIRA Texas Import Shootout
Televised nationally on ESPN2, the NIRA drag events was definitely not one of our better showings.

All of our cars ran at least a second slower than normal but luckily we had a few members of the Houston RX-7 club to pick up the pace and give the other imports a good challenge.
