race wars were a disaster for me!!!!!!!

oh my gosh, i cant even believe this happened, alright, so im goin to race wars to race, and im taking off my front driverside rim to put my stock rims for better times, and guess what happens, stripped the lug nut onto the hub bolt, i couldnt take the damn lug off, nor could i tighten it back on, so i ended spending two hours there trying, by eight thirty i decided forget it, im goin home, so i ended up driving about thirty miles home on three lugs, i get home to try piercing it with some punches and a hammer, nope, then i drive a driver punch, didnt work either, finally today, me and my brother decided lets try again, so we punched it some more to creat a good groove in the lug, then we drilled the phucker out, finally it came out after about two hours of drilling the sides, scratched rim, the hub bolt is stripped beyond belief, so tomorrow i have to go take it to an auto specialist and get it repaired, or that one hub bolt hopefully ill have it done, but for now i have to drive on three lugs and hope my rim doesnt come off or my alignment doesnt mess up, well just wanted to let you all know what happened at the drags, i never did get to run, dammit, im so upset

Eric, I heard about your problems when I was at the Import Wars. Sorry it didnt work out for ya but even so, I dont think your exhaust and intake would have helped ya out there. There were some sick cars out there putting down some awesome times. At least you made a connection out of it.
