Should I even bother prepping the car? Think SAC will be open?

Edit: ok, so I was a month off. [Embarrassed]

wasn't too bad out there today...ran a best of 12.9 @ 110, but had some seriously annoying problems with the shifter....couldn't get it into 4th 99% of the time, so my times were way off. Nobody really broke, except the dude with the black 03 cobra vert....sorry about the half shafts bro.

Nice run John!
When I saw them spraying VHT right in front of you I figured it'd be your best pass of the day. 1.7 60ft....is that your best?
11.43 is moving!
Damnit, now I really need to 'step it up'. Can't have 2 Teal Cobra's that close in ET/MPH! [Wink]

I like that track! I ran my best times yet today in the ol' green 97 Cobra. I got a 13.484 / 103.575 / 1.985 out of it today. Since I kept getting rained out at infineon, I decided to made the the longer drive out to Sac. It was worth it.

I lined up behind a teal Cobra that made a great run. Was that a nitrous purge after staging?

I saw that '03 break something. It was violent. The cars back end popped up about 6 inches. Hope he can get a warranty fix...

Yup, that was my best 60'. I mustered up a 1.85 and a 1.88, but no repeats of a 1.70. Those spring/shocks/struts are doing absolutely nothing for the launch. Time to scrounge up some 70/30s and good springs. [Smile]

Jeff- I'm running 10 psi and 100 octane.

Yup, it was a nitrous purge. It's my poor-mans intercooler. [Big Grin]
