    ...and could not stop laughing after my first and second runs (those were enough).

    First run.

    60' = 2.733

    14.3@110

    lolololol Oh yea, I was peddling all the way down the track and finally let up about 300' before the traps. lmfao


    Second (last) run

    60' = 2.492

    13.6@103

    Nothing like an 1/8 mile burn out (literally). Finally just let up.

    Yea, I think I need to get some more DR's before I attempt another run down the track. Street Radials SUCK with the new build.

    I did however, make the night a lil more enjoyable for everyone else at the track. hahahahahahahahahahaha

    For some reason, I don't think Techco will be putting those times in their promotional material.

    I'm amazed you even attempted to run on street radials! I'm sure it was fun either way! I like doing burnouts.

    lol I was undecided about even attempting it, but the track owner's were wanting to see me do it. haha These guys have 6 and 7 second (up here) doorslammers and ultimately talked me into it.

    I must say, I did have fun keeping her on the track. hahahahaha I think I drifted more than anything else?

    I was impressed with my traps, even though I lifted before the traps. Especially the first run. I am pretty sure if I would have stayed in it, my trap would have been close to 118-120 mph, which would be a 7mph increase from my old setup?

    Nice improvement Ron. Don't you usually take about a month to do 1320?

    I wouldnt worry about it Ron .. you probably have to completely re-learn the car ..

    either that or its time you switch cars full time with Maureen .. I think shes more capable of handling a car with that kinda power!

    Ron,

    I am there with you...... My first time at the track was in a manual and I was so nervous I did a nose plant instead of stepping on the clutch to shift!!!!!!! I got a picture of it!!!!!!

    No, I will not post.
