Geo you should see if you can build a little house at the track and live there. Your always there!!! I would like to go but I have clas tonight. And my car isnt ready just yet. In about a month or 2 I will be there and running some nice times. I still need one last thing to run high boost.

OSW blows... :madbird:

Got there at 6:40p and only got to make 2 passes...WTF is with that? My first pass was at 9:11p and the second was at 10:28p which was after the staging lanes closed. Damnit...

First pass I cut a 1.778 60', missed 2nd gear and ended up with a 13.539 @ 102.09. That sucked, but atleast it looked like I might get the magical 12.99 I've been searching for...

Second pass, I was psyched and was positive I wouldn't miss a gear. They prep'ed the track for the 13.99 and faster cars and I thought I had a chance. Well, I didn't get my 12...in fact it was a slower pass!

13.728 @ 104.15

Why was this a slower pass? Maybe because of the phenomenal 2.313 60' time!?! Did it bog? Hell no. Fucking spun all 4...skated the front end like I popped the clutch at 6k in the rain. Damnit... The track prep blew goats...go figure.

They even bitched at me about not having a helmet! So...OSW blows!

Damn that sucks, that is your best mph though right? It was packed yesterday,I got there at 5:45 and my first and only pass was not till like 7:15 or so.

Unfortunately one of my grounds to the battery decided to fuck me over, threw second gear and lost everything no power, limped it down the track, taped the ground back on, limped it home(of course the ground fell off a few times on the way home). It was a horrible track trip, my spark plugs where fouled already so the car was not going to run good anyway. Fixed everything, the ride to work this morning was very very fun ;)

Yep...best MPH I've gotten, but not much of a consolation. I did lean it out a good bit for that last run, and got some misfires (hopefully due to the old spark plugs I'm running). I think the MPH might be a result of the wheelspin, but I'm hoping I can reproduce it next trip to the track because that would put me right at a 12.9-13.0 range.

How packed are they on Friday nights?

It usually has is pretty packed fridays basically like it was yesterday. I'm going to be there friday at 5:30. the 13.99 lane is the first one to go so usually that lane gets the most run in since it starts with that one and ends with that one. I will run there and hope I run 13.99 and faster hehe.
