Cool new 1/8th mile times

Went out this time to run the 1/8th and get some practice launching. Didn't have the skinnies this time. But still had the 16" m&h racemasters.

1st run.
60' 2.061
330 5.565
1/8th 8.507 @81.22

Forgot to take it out of second so it was hitting the rev limiter.

2nd run
60' 1.936 FINALLYYYYY
330 5.443
1/8th 8.286 @ 86.99

I finally got my sub 2 second 60', need some more practice and it will come down. This is still on the stock stall. Not to bad I don't think.

The trap speed on the 2nd run seems kinda high...are you sure it is correct? That would indicate a mid-12 second pass. Either way, good job

Yeah I'm pretty sure its right. That time in the sig is over a year old. I have a cam and roller rockers, and stuff on it now. Best 1/4 now is a 12.9 at almost 110 with a 2.0 60'. So yeah it should be right on par for a 12.7 or so run with the stock stall.

Good numbers. Get that 60' down a little and you'll be right about where I'm at, if not a little quicker.
