Hey Chris, I'm the guy with other Silver GT that you met at the last Mustang night. I won't be there Wednesday, I'm broke until Friday (payday), but good luck getting that 12 second pass. Have you tried a test n tune day? The better track conditions might get you there, even on your street tires. Otherwise, a more aggressive tire, and you're there.

11s would be nice, but i'm running street tires...when i get the 12 time slip then i'm going to go with the drag radials or slicks.

Mean- Friday's are way better, I went last Friday and got about 8 runs in two ours. Hopefully I'll have my torque boxes welded by this Friday so I can really let it rip off the line.

All you do for Test N Tune night is get your car inspected, line up and let her rip down the track. The line up and do it again and so on and so on. You should also get your timeslips every third run or so.

On a good night, you could get in up to 12 or more runs...

HOW MANY CARS OCCASIONALLY SHOW UP BECAUSE ON WEDNESDAY NITE THERE WERE SO MANY DAMN TOO SLOW TOO CRAPPY ROCKETS THERE. [Confused]

the test and tune sound much better...but i'm going to be out of town this weekend. i'll have to go up there when i get back.

however i am going up there tonight, so i'll keep everyone posted.

I'd say usually around 40 or so on a good day.

There have been times where around 9pm you can actually do a run, come around and get right back on the track without even waiting.

good luck.

I just need to fix a leaky lower intake gasket, and if I feel like doing it tomorrow after work I will try to make it Friday.
