Summit Racing has a legal Bieffe helmut for $99.95. I'm ordering tomorrow by snail mail. They have all sorts of helmuts in their catalog.

I thought you rode a motorcycle. Can't you use that helmet?

Got three runs in a sac. Pretty happy with my 2nd run for a very stock cobra.
FIRST: Reaction: 1.364 fell asleep at the light 60 foot: 2.177 1/8 ETA: 11.829 1/4 MPH: 100.748 1/4 ETA: 14.090
SECOND: Reaction: .636 60 foot: 2.053 1/8 ETA: 8.918 1/4 MPH: 99.876 1/4 ETA: 13.818
THIRD: Reaction: .634 60 foot: 2.204 Spin throw first 1/8 ETA: 8.994 1/4 MPH: 99.097 1/4 ETA: 13.925
All in all it was a decent night, would have liked a few more passes.

After not even making a qualifying pass I was fortunate enough to make it six rounds but red lighted, so I ended up with the runner up trophy in the Mustang lane. I don't think I've seen that many Mustangs there before in lane 7.

well it was my first time ever to the drags and I ran
14.033 at 100.998mph
my traction sucked off the line. I need some different back tires, the saleen rims with 35 side profile are no good for launching!

I got in 3 runs before I left. The last one isn't worth talking about, but the other two were alright, 1st Run 14.169 @ 99.857 2.18 60 ft.
2nd Run 13.916 @ 96.780 2.164 60 ft.
I need to work on that 60ft time, the stock goodyears aren't the best of tires I must say, I'll get some Nitto DR's soon enough.

If you consider your car almost stock, then i consider my car almost stock being that i have a few less mods than you. So on a stock 00gt on street tires should I be trapping 104?? I doubt it. What were your times on your car?
