I'll be out there. I don't think that I will justify my name with the new rules, but hopefully I will get close. I just got it back together after changing the clutch, tranny synchros, and a bunch of other stuff. I put about 120 miles on the new clutch with a lot of clutch use. Hopefully that is a good enough break-in. Centerforce wants 500 miles! My cousin will be in his Mach1. He just put in 4.30's, but he doesn't seem impressed with the performance.

Motorhead, are you going to be in the 05 GT? I really want to see what those things do. I thought high 13's, but I think MM&FF got a 13.40 out of it before they modified it. I want to see what they will do in the real world.

At http://www.dragtimes.com/ I've seen some low 13's being put up from the east coast. If it stays cool and calm we may see some ourselves.

That is a cool website. Now I have high expectations of the 05's. If any 05's out there don't beat a 13.75 then they are going to have to let me drive it!!!!

Glad to see you here Craig. Many people I'm sure know of your car, but have not put two and two together.

See you Wednesday [patriot]

The only problem is that now I have another web site to surf instead of working. I am going to get into trouble if I don't get some work done.

See you tomorrow!

Does anyone know if the 1/4 mile track is open. Last I heard they were only running 1/8 mile runs because the 1/4 mile has drainage issues and after all the rain it might be a concern ?

I just called the info line @ 1800.870.7223 x209 but it hasn't been updated since last weeks races.
With the dry weather we've had all weekend and warm afternoon's I'd say we're looking at a good 1/4 mile track tomorrow.

Infineon should most definatelely be running the full quarter mile tomorrow.

This will be the first night I'm running the new 4:30's and ET Streets on my Mach1. I'm not impressed with it's performance on the street. I was running consistantly in the 12's at the end of last season but it sure doesn't feel like a 12 sec car anymore. [Frown]

Yeah, I will be there in the 05.I ran last week in the 1/8 and got a 2.1 60ft,9.0 @ 79. I'm gonna let some tire pressure out this time and see if I can't lay down a 2.0 or better 60ft. Wheel hop is a major problem with these cars. I was running consistant with a mach 1,a lightning,and a H/C/I 5.0,So I should be in the 13's somwhere.I'm hoping for a 13.5 at 103 ish. I have a SCT premium fuel tune on my car,but besides that its bone stock. I have seen cars on the net with my setup running 13.1's at 103-105,but they all seem to have 93 octane at the pumps...damn cali [Mad]

See ya there,I'm in the blk/blk 05,probably the only one [patriot]

Motorhead, I am glad that you will be out there. I will be in the 93 Reef Blue (teal) LX with the Vortech.

You can always put some 96 octane in the car at the track. I usually put 3 gallons of 100 octane unleaded in to mix with the 1/4 tank of 91. It sounds like you will be in the 13's, but I think that you will need to get a sub 2.0 60ft to make it to a 13.50.
