I really dont feel like posting the shotty times but the best run of the night was a 14.1 @ 99mph with a crappy 2.23 60' Track wasnt street tire friendly last night.(when is it on Wednesday's?)

Anyway's time for a new tranny or rebuild along with a 2800 stall and some ET streets. Tranny is feeling pretty soggy between shifts.

Don't feel bad...just get some ET streets (I love those!) and go on a test 'n tune. If you know how to launch, you'll bring down those 60 foots and get some 13s!

Nice meeting you last night Ryan.
ET Streets will definately help.

I pulled my best ever 60ft last night...1.699!
Also got my best ET due to the great 60ft. 12.41 @109.5
Still wondering where the other 1.5mph went.....but I was able to get 110.2 with a little added FP.

Ryan,
Nice car! Sounds crazy-mean! I'll shoot you that video ASAP.
91Stanger,
Your car is NUTS! You had BIG traction problems!

I think the track was super slick...the first pass I made down the track (in the right lane) I seriously considered backing out of it, because my car was getting loose up top. (and I'm only a little 13 second car!) Did you guys see that older RX7? That guy driving that musta been a FOOL! The first pass he made, he almost lost it, and he DIDN'T back out of it! He just kept going!
Anyway, the track wasn't very friendly last night, as my best pass was 14.1@99.8 with a 2.23 60' aswell. At least I was cutting nice lights, except the first round I cut a damn .450! But I DID get a .499!! ALMOST got that perfect light!

60 fts were sloppy, hurting E.T. I don't have a new best E.T. to post, but I did hit 103 mph for the first time, so getting deep into the 13s should be possible at some point in the future.

Sounds like no body was happy with there street tires and cold pavement...lol

Basic rule of thumb, just shoot for good MPH on wed nights
