Went racing on Friday and Saturday. Friday we had a SRT get together at Edgewater Dragway. 10 SRT's attended. Mike Comp T/A #57 Charger EricG 300C Jeremy PPP 300C Chris Charger Mark Charger Tom 300C 4 Neon's Traction was terrible :sad: Could only run 12.20 with 1.89 60ft 115.05 MPH New Best DA was 685 Even though I was disappointed with the track prep.....we had a GR8 time! ---------------------------------------- Saturday I went to Tri-State Dragway DA was 632 They are having a Big "3 Day" bracket race this weekend, so I knew the track would be prepped good. I didn't find out till I got there, that it was a 1/8 mile race. I checked all my time slips from the last 8 months and for my car the average 1/8 mile to 1/4 conversion is 1.5493 My best run was 7.72 New Best 7.72 x 1.5493 = 11.96 1.76 60ft New Best 5.01 330ft New Best .24 better than Friday 12.20 - .24 = 11.96 My best MPH for the day was 92.00 New Best I'm very happy! I talked to JMatt on the phone last week and he predicted I would run 11.96 this weekend. I wish they would have prepped the track Friday and the race Saturday would have been run on the 1/4 mile instead of 1/8 mile.
Nice Job Mike! Wish I could have made it, but I raced Thursday. Bought a car Saturday. Sold a car Saturday. In-laws are in town. Way to much for me to get out for yet another day of racing. I'm trying some new parts here on Thursday (and a new car as well). We'll see what happens. This is about my last chance before Columbus to get it right.
A couple more photos from the weekend. Friday night, SRT8 central :friends: Traction was really tough and I ran a best of [email protected], and that was with a 60 foot of 2.054. My worst of 9 runs was 13.091 and my lowest trap was 109.74 so I was happy. I had some fun kills that night, muscle cars, to ricer specials so I feel like my car is running strong for the mods. And just to show that first time was not a fluke for Mike, here's a couple more runs from Saturday. Imagine an east coast DA of -1000 or even better! I think Mike definitely has a faster run in that car, so many people were coming up to us talking about how much they liked the Charger SRT8:worthy: Eric
Wow, you can really see here how mismatched the paint is on my new front spoiler. No worries, it's going back in for a repaint in 10 days and a MOPAR dub grille is going on too! Eric
Thanks Guys! Nice picture of 6 bags of ice on my intake. I have to tell you.....it was pretty cold after 2 hours. :grin:
Congrats man! You really know how to lay it down. Its always nice to pick your brain for tips. Hopefully my car will be done soon..
For the benefot of others, what are your mods? I remember you telling me sometime ago that it wasn't too much...
Stock converter too! Nice "new" times Mike! (Had to come back and check what you were running with lol)
