Opps my dumb ass must have been to into work to realize that.
*that's the official dumb ass question of the day*
Thank you, thank you very much.

What was your best time, 60ft and mph?
my dads best run was 13.14 at 105mph warming the slicks up and i think the 60 was 2.1? not sure i don't have the slip infront of me. My best run was 13.59 at 105mph 2.2 was my 60 and i didn't warm the slicks up i just launched. We found out today that the slicks were hitting. Nothing is damaged though.

It was a fun day (cept for the track prep, or lack of) and thanks to all who set things up. It was good to meet the people who's screen names had no faces (nice pants moo!).
Anyway, from looking at the times in this post I'm not sure if I'm supposed to give my best time or the time that was run during the "official" race. Here are both: 10.731 @ 124.328 for the club race and 9.731 @ 136.813 for the best of the day.
Looking forward to the car show now.

8)JRIOS Red Trans Am Supercharged 12.8@114.03MPH 0.671 *WIN
I was faster on the strip but slower at the light. D'oh!

I lined up to race the Mercedes guy, his name is Ben and he seems very nice, but that's the moment my stock clutch quad decided to fail - right on the starting line. He ran a 10 second time on that run, I was told.

My setup is nothing exotic, stock block, trick flow heads, trick flow intake, TTI T76 race turbo, Anderson Motorsport PMS, Wolf Racecraft drag suspension. Just wish the track prep was up to "par"
We'll see on the 4th of July for the PSCA event. Norman and Todd said the PSCA events are well prep'd. Looking for 9's!

Where to begin? I'm so burnt out from the event and the hectic days leading up to the event, I don't have much motivation to post lately, even though I owe a thousand thank-you's to people, and a ton of emails to return/send.
John91coupe- Glad you could make it out. Not much I could do about the track prep. I was getting pulled in a hundred directions all day. Next time, Treyner is going to race his Yellow 850 rwhp Viper against you on behalf of Norcal-LS1.
Crazy3gz - Sorry your competition had some problems. If I wasn't stuck administering the races, I could have rigged up something to get Poison Pony's Cobra to be competitive with you.
eljefe - Glad you liked the race. So many close races thanks to Drew, Justin and I matching the cars closely.
Cobra5.0Jeep- I don't know what to say. Either your cobra seriously needs "The Drew-Mod" or something is wrong with the car. 13.1@105 mph is what your cobra should run with out the blower. Thanks for coming out and racing though. I hope you had a good time
ray95 - Your car is some sticky tires and better driving away from 11's!
Quick 88LX - Those are some serious 60 fts with Nitto's your 1st time out. Congrats on the 12 second timeslip.
Tyrant89 - Nice running into you on the freeway like that. Good thing your over heating problem wasn't serious and you were able to make it to the track and run consistant low 12's, and reach your goal of 11's once the weather cooled down.
shade-tree - I still can't believe you were power shifting and spraying nitrous on the freeway on your way to the track Who would have guessed that Home Depot alternator braket rig wouldn't hold up ![[Razz]](tongue.gif) You should have called someone to come fetch you. We had a few guys that could have trailored you the rest of the way and MooStang had extra 6 rib belts she was trying to give away. I'm sure between our hacking skills, we could have pulled enough parts from my car to get you down the track a few times against those LS1's. Oh well, no use crying(more) over spilled milk.
