My first time ever at the strip.
Only got one run, heat-soaked after an hour and a half drive, spare tire on board, and I shifted into 4th (probably won't do that again). I can see this is going to be addictive!
R/T: .694
60': 1.982
1/8: 8.525
1/4: 13.233
MPH: 104.01

I won't even bother posting my newest timeslip, (this list is my baby and I have yet to put up a decent time)
I went to the track, it was 50F there, they were calling for sun, but it was only out 1/2 hour. My (and everyone else's) 60' time was horrible and I only managed a 13.7 @ 105MPH. Had the sun been out I would have done much better. I'll have to wait for springtime probably

From: Beautiful New Hampshire!!!
Well, I ran on the last Wednesday nite T&T at Milan yesterday for 2006 and bettered my times a little. I'd scan the timeslips in but I got the yellow copies and you really can't see them too well so here's the results.
Best time:14.10 @96.9 w/ a 2.31 60 ft.
Actually was pretty consistent on my 60 ft., but still need to get it down to a 2.0, tried 27 psi in the rears and leaving at 2500 rpms on the brake (and yes, I fully released the brake too!!). I'm sure my 260 lbs. doesn't help my times but I'd appreciate any ideas for improving them before I get any more mods. Hopefully, this spring I'll have a CAI and tuner (from Bamachips) along with some suspension (BMR) work.

Guys- I need a little advice. I've only run the car once, but I'd like to learn whatever I can from that run.
What would be the most likely cause of me running a 13.2 with only a 104 trap speed? I did shift into 4th, which I suspect slowed me down at the end- any ideas? My slip is posted a few posts above. Thanks.

thanks i guess it`s not that bad considering the 50 +/- mph head winds......
My car works well. But today its like she drunk 10 liters of red bull. one of my run, my speed was 110.880. usualy i'm at 108. I should say that it was around 9°C today. and i was spinning hard in 1/2 shift and 2/3. last week i get a 1.98 60" and make 13.05 with a 1.90 normaly i should run something much faster, but i was spinning hard today.
I'm on the same track as thump_rrr
