Had some decent runs tonight:
......Me.....vs.....Nobody
60'..2.418
1/8..9.162
MPH..83.24
1/4..13.889
MPH..104.11
Decent run, spun first a ton. I had lined up with my friends Chevelle and the tree started to drop then it showed me redlighting even though I didn't move. Had to wait a minute and got a solo run.
......Me....vs....LS1 Camaro
60'..2.292.......2.513
1/8..8.928.......9.574
MPH..83.78.......77.94
1/4..13.648......14.546
MPH..104.25......98.87
I burned 'em pretty bad. Going into second my clutch slipped really bad staying at about 5500 for a couple seconds. Also at the top of third and fourth I felt just a slight miss about 4 times total. Nothing major but probably cost me about .5 mph or so.
......Me....vs....Some old muscle car
60'..2.471.......2.522
1/8..9.628.......10.984
MPH..81.62.......63.70
1/4..14.395......17.582
MPH..104.11......66.58
I really lost traction bad throughout all of first and most of second on this one and got really sideways in second. Pretty much it. I trapped about 2mph lower in the 8th but picked it up on the back end and still had a good trap.
Just a disclaimer to my 60' times. I have not launched my car (not even on the street) at all since Aug.4th of last year and am obviously really out of practice.
