Glad to hear you are already sizing up the auto-x competition for the Shootout next year. Your roof didn't look bad at a glance in person. When I met you this year, I didn't correlate your car with this thread, and never noticed any roof damage.

The dent from the tree wasn't too bad, it was mostly the massive amounts of scratches that bummed me out. The most surprising thing damaged from the tree is the glass. Lots of scratches in the windows. Wish I had the $50 glass replacement coverage, but that's only an option when you get full coverage through my insurance.

Ran the Galant Saturday at the track. It was a little disappointing but I really wasn't planning on running. It was a spur of the moment thing since a few friends of mine went.

The video was a 12.4 run. Had a decent 1.7 launch, but I had a problem getting into 4th so it killed the run. I think it would have been good for a 11.

The second run that didn't get taped was 12.1 @ 118. Had a slower launch and some knock issues in 4th gear.

There were people scattering cars all over the place so I just called it a day. I think I could have gotten 11's on pump which would have been pretty good considering I have the awful bolt on housing s259. Next year I should be on a T4 1.00 TS and a magnus cast intake manifold.
