Went to the track today for the Musclecar-Evolution track day. The air was great and the track was working. 1st pass I wasn't expecting the track to hook so good and I bogged the car. Here's the breakdown on that pass. 60'-1.589, 330'-4.461, 1/[email protected], 1000'-8.884, 1/[email protected].

2nd pass I was prepared for the awesome hooking track and launched off the limiter.
60'-1.441, 330'-4.27, 1/[email protected], 1000'-8.675, 1/[email protected]. New record.

3rd pass. Launced off limiter again, but experience a hiccup on 2/3 and 3/4 shifts + car wasn't as cooled down as before. 60'-1.434, 330'-4.297, 1/[email protected], 1000'-8.751, 1/[email protected].

Last pass. Let car cool for 2hrs and let it rip. Unfortunately the track was gettin cold, but the air was too. 60'-1.499, 330'-4.287, 1/[email protected], 1000'-8.643, 1/[email protected]. New record again.

Oh yeah, on the first pass, the car ate a rib off the belt. The other 3 passes were made on 7 ribs. Lol. No slip though, it maintained a tad over 16lbs through the traps every pass.

I wish I could have had the 1.43 60' on that last pass. It would have been a 10.28 or better. Oh well, still not bad.

Vid of the 10.39 pass.

Another angle of the same pass. Closer up with burnout.

Here is a vid I found of the 10.48 pass. This was the best 60' of the day, but the car wasn't cooled as much as I would have liked.

Good job man. I saw your car running. Strong Mustang there.

Today was my first day ever at the track! Hahaha....I ran a 13.36 @ 110 with my exhaust only Cobra with a 2.212 60' on street tires.

I didn't want to break her.:shrug:

Great runs today Larry that car was moving out. Wish we could have had a video on that last pass? Maybe someone got it on tape?
Thanks bro, maybe somebody got it on vid. I'll keep an eye out on MCE.
You need a sticky so you can just update your own record every weekend.

Congrats foo.:beer:
Thanks bro, you funny.
Congrats :beer:

Thanks Dwight, it's makin me want to hold off on the KB.

Thanks Jake, I hope you can get back out there and take advantage of the good air. The DA on my 10.34 pass was -540'.

Thanks man, that's a clean cobra you have. I love the white. You'd probably be running some 12.60's or better with a good drag radial.:beer:

Congrats - that is a huge achievement.

When are you going out next? Maybe someone can take some video so those of us who have their cars put away for the winter can have some fun watching.

Thanks man. I'm probably going out again next weekend, but I may be on 17" drag radials for that race. I haven't decided yet.

I'm hoping someone got some of these passes on vid. I'm just waiting on the other site to see if any get posted up. There were several folks videoing.

The group I was with was videoing a BUNCH of races. I'm going over to his house today, so we'll dig through the footage and I'll definitely edit your race out and post it for you if they got it.

I'll be in touch!:thumbsup:

Smacked_in_ATL,
..could you see about any of the lightning runs as well? There were 3 of us there. The gray one didn't count. I talked to him and he was pulling hi "Goat" with it and didn't know anything about the truck.

Yes next Sat the 29th is "Bugday"(nothing to do with bugs). Go to www.streetcarforums.com and check out the Atlanta section. There is a thread about it there.

Good seeing ya yesterday man - I saw that 10.34 pass as I was standing next to the MPH trailer, you were hauling ass through the traps. It was comical how fast you shifted that damn thing - faster and crisper than an automatic.

Congrats on the new record, very impressive :bowdown: :beer:
