So I Went To The Track This Past Wednesday With The New Prostars. Probably Not The Best Idea Because My Rearend Is BONE Stock. I Thought I Would Only Get One Solid Run But It Ended Up Not Breaking. After My Second Run I Watched The Video On The Camcorder And Noticed That I Was Pulling A Tire Off Of The Ground. Not A Whole Lot But It Was Off The Ground. All I Was Thinking Was O SH**. Anyways Here Is A Picture And The Video. Enjoy. (Full Screen The Video To See The Time Slips)

Halerious video editing, LOL
That 12.13 is an 11.999 at Sac. My car was always 0.1-0.15 faster at Sac with no other changes.
Torque curve looks phenomenal. It must be a blast to drive on the street.
You still have 3.27's?

well, a number of reasons:
Infinion accomodates 300+ cars on a wed night and its relatively cheap. They absolutely do NOT pound the pavement with VHT like Sac does. And for $50 admission, I expect Sac too.
Brutal head wind at Infinion too. Some guys say its a seasonal thing, but everytime I go, the flag seems to be blowing in the direction of the starting line.
I don't want to get in a pissing match with the Infineon faithful, but I can tell you that MY car is 2mph slow at Infineon with no other changes.
Both tracks hook fine for me. The Car just doesn't get down the track at Sears for some reason. I've raced two different cars at both tracks, and both of my cars were about 0.1-0.15 and 1-2mph slower at Infineon.

I agree, i only go to infineon though. sac is just too far... but anyhow, the Head wind at infineon sucks ass.. it's so strong that in some instances it will push your car back as you are waiting at the tree.
Luke, does sac really prep the track well? i had heard horror stories about sac on wednesday nights...are you talking about wednesdays or weekend events?
Thanks. i want to make the trip there soon. wanna see if i can brake into the 13.10s there.

On wednesday it is suppose to be streetlegal stuff. So no slicks allowed type thing, so they don't exactly prep the track as well as weekend events. I have heard of sac spraying the track down every once in a while on wednesdays. I have pulle consistant 1.7's and once pulled a 1.67 and 1.68 on wednesdays. It's really hit or miss. To make your long trip worth, a TNT would be your best bet like tonight.
