LOL, well, when you put it that way... [Razz]

Seriously, I hate my car right now. Between having it cutting out up top and the exhaust exiting under the car, (haven't had my tail pipes modified to clear the swaybar yet), I can't even stand driving it.

I POOP ON DUMPS!

lol

Well my car decided to not rev past 6000 RPM's last night. So with the shift light set at 5900 I went a best of 11.81 @ 100 mph, (on the brakes trying to bracket race...lol) Best MPH was 119.8, although I pretty convinced that had I not hit the brakes on that last run it would have been in the 120's. [Roll Eyes]

How did everyone else do?

I hate Bracket racing when you have to slow your car down it is very difficult.

I was at Infineon and broke out in the 4th round. The car started getting hot and slowing down, so I dialed up, then I got a better 60ft and the car went a lot quicker. I ran 11.888 on an 11.90 dial in at 106mph. I was still way ahead of the guy but I didn't think that I needed to hit the brakes any harder. Earlier I ran an 11.98 @ 87 mph on the brakes. That would have been an 11.70 if I stayed on it, which is what I was dialed at. I also had a .000 reaction on that run.

my n20 v6 lost in the 3rd round to a s/c 5.0 that ran a 12. on the brakes, he was dialed in at 11.80 and had a .049 light. my air pressure was to low and i slowed to a 13.39 i was dialed in at 13.13 and had a .101 light. [burnout] [burnout]

Craig, i was in the red mustang that you beat two times out there. I had major belt slippage and terrible 60ft times. 1 was 2.35 and the other 2.45. Time to invest in an 8 rib set up and some drag radials. I couldn't believe you ran a perfect light. That was damn good. Your car is bad @$$.

anybody see an extremely clean light blue LX hatchback at infineon? He left the dyno and went straight there, older gentleman, blown stroker motor w/ et streets and a 5spd. Just wondering what it ran since it made great power!

How much power? I think I know who your talking about. A 331, Brodex heads etc.
I wasn't at the track but NEEDACAGE was there maybe he will know.

I think that all four cars I raced on Wednesday were Mustangs. Mfracing, that was me that raced you in the 3rd round. I ran an 03 Cobra in the 4th round and broke out. I shouldn't have dialed up to the 11.90, but if I stayed on it against you in the 3rd round it would have run an 11.90. I don't know why it sped back up. I dropped 10mph and still ran 11.888 in the 4th round. My light should have been better, but the .000 light kind of freaked me out and I was worried about seeing red. The thing that pisses me off is that I was still a tenth ahead of the guy so I could have hit the brakes a lot harder but I just didn't think I had to. Maybe this week I will do better.

The blue LX showed up late. The guys name is Dave and he is a real good guy. He didn't run it out so we will see what he does this week. He now has 500rwhp. He should be a lot quicker than I am since his best run without the blower was a 12.40 @ 112mph. Add 8 psi to that and do the math. It will be quick! I thought that my car was clean until Dave started bringing his out. I told myself that was okay since I was quicker. Now he is taking that away from me. Damn it Dave!
