I could not get the MACA trailer cars into the same shot. Empty slots were on the track. More to come.

Here is a link to a GoPro video of one of my runs. I managed an 11.2 at 130.5 with a 1.8 60':

Your car sounds great. Do you have stock suspension? Looked like it hooked pretty darn good for being a cooler day!

I have the mods in my signature below. It was my first day on the track with the new suspension mods. I have lots to figure out or adjust to get into the 1.6 60' range which is what I have to do to get the 10's I am looking for.

Thanks!

Lol! i dunno how i shifted gears so well at all!!! For the past year or two my clutch pedal was insanely stiff and i could NOT shift while making runs due to a beat up clutch plate. Only last week did i get that fixed and this past week has been the first time in years i could shift like i should be able to. It was a great feeling!

When i would go to far for the staging and i would have to reverse i would reverse slowly, and more then once the stagin lights would catch up and start while i was still in reverse. I learned alot about my traction and reaction times, i cant WAIT to get back out there.

I also find it funny because my race against the 7 second car was my fastest run. Intimidation inspired confidence :thumbsup:

Nothing to write home about here. Same ol diff day. Thanks for everyone that came out. All of you that bugged out early should of stayed for the last two passes. I launched the car at 6250 with 12.25 psi in the tires and it didn't even roll the tire over once!

Thanks to the millers for another great outing!

Eww, why you gotta post the one video of me running a 14? LOL

Haha, I had a blast everybody. Best I managed on the day though was a 13.25 @ 114, spinning the whole way. Really need to work on that 60'.

Hahaha sorry, i didnt even report the times like a good camera man should, so nobody needs to know it was a 14. If anything it looked like a 12's run to me :burnout: lol.

Im super excited to go back and work on my times.
