Beat a Challenger R/T more than once.. at the track.

Had a blast,still no 12's I ran a best of 13.031 at 105.95 with a 2.008 60ft into a stiff headwind.

The Challenger was a 2010 R/T 375HP A5 with LT Headers,CAI,Tuning and MT DR's "Driver Sam".

The TA a 1999 W/122,000 miles A4, LT Headers, CAI,Tune and Free Mods W/Hoosier DR's "Driver Me".

We were both chasing 12's today and I beat him 4 out of 5 runs,he is a really cool guy.

Best slip side by side 12:30 pm "Winner Me"

Sam LL Me RL
RT .374 .166

60ft 1.933 2.008

330ft 5.398 5.522

1/8 8.346 8.415

mph 83.83 85.84

1000ft 10.871 10.903

1/4 13.001 13.031

mph105.83 105.95


He was so close,the wind picked up more and we both couldn't get it done.

We are going to have a friendly grudge match on Victoria Day.

Looks to me that the Challenger was still faster? Close races like that can be a lot of fun when they can go either way and the other guy is not a douche.

That slip wound up being PB's for both of us and best pass of the day for both of us.

He went quicker with his 60ft.

I out MPH'd him on every slip,check the 1/8th and 1/4.

I just fixed my busted tranny mount and added my RLCA's and PHD bar.

This thing should hook a little better now.
