I know I havent been able to get out of 13s. The only reason being my reserved style..."the real grandma racing". I've only run once at 12 psi and managed to get a decent 13.2 @ 109mph with the clutch slipping real bad in 3rd.

The people that give u a hard time about your times are either benchwarmers or just have very crappy reading skills.

Hehe, we all know this racing **** is harder than it looks!

Hey Rich those are respectable numbers especially on street tires.

What kind of tree is at that track?

Rich,

Get yourself a set of ET streets and with that mph you'll run a 12.00, maybe high 11 sec pass with a 1.5 60'.......Good luck and congrats!

Hey Ernie,

thanks man. I'm heading out there tonight and borrowing my friend's drag radials. I just want to be careful--I've already been through one PPF and want to keep my diff in good shape.
