[QUOTE="MI2QWK4U, post: 2834832, member: 12370"] I will say this much...It was an honor to shed first blood...Ford GT blood that is. It was intimidating to say the least. Lidio had done some tuning last week and the car felt great. The new Nittos HOOOKED like CRAZY... My burnout was spectacular, the new tires heated up real nice... The GT had done its weak burnout and was waiting at the line while my tires were still smoking doing the burnout! I didnt launch as hard as I could have, as I was still feeling out the track and new tires, but they grabbed and hooked and she launched harder than I ever remember feeling. Anyway, he ran a 12.36 @ 122 mph and I took him with my 11.94 @ 115 mph. The crowd couldnt believe it! 4600 lb 4dr sedan beating Fords flagship sports car...awesum. Have no doubts, he was pulling hard and making up ground as you can tell by the MPH, but to be honest, I launched harder than usual, but not nearly as hard as I could have. Im going to Disney World... oooopps... Almost forgot, that run and my last run were new personal bests for both the car and myself, ended up with a best of 11.92 @ 115 mph.
