Today was a good day...
I was able to pull a handful of 12.3/12.4s but the last run of the day was the best:
TRIXSNK was on the right and I was on the left:
I used a short belt, bypassing the smog, ac and p/s pump today which seemed to help. Plus I also remove my front sway bar and misc stuff from the inside of my car...I can't wait for 11s.
Wildthang also got a new best today...I'll let him tell you.

Thank you...I was pretty surprised by it. My car is strange. Either the first or last pass are usually the best for me, even if the last one is a hot lap .

Yeah it was definately a fun time out...It's always good to meet fellow stangers.
Too bad the jr. drag kids were there. We would have gotten in a lot more runs.
Definately get some sticky tires. You'll notice a BIG difference...

It was kinda like this, but Tony forgot to Smile!

Were you running your car? Also, I noticed in your profile you play ball. Where do you play at? I play quite a bit in Martinez, Concord, Pinole, Antioch, WC, PH, etc.
Hey Patrick, Nice meeting you and thanks for the props

I know, I could have been better by 1/100th if I did. By the way, how much weight did you shave off after the bikini and back hair waxing??? [ January 16, 2005, 12:45 AM: Message edited by: twstd5o ]

It's a good thing they don't have highback cloth seats like at the movies, he might get stuck. A plane ride sitting between those two would be fun.

I've got about 320 foot pounds to the wheels. Well that's what the dyno says anyways.
I've got a PI Stallion that stalls at about 4200.
I'm surprised it launches as good as it does with the stock suspension with the exception of Eibach sport springs. I don't even have sub frames on there yet.
