Talking New Best ET For The Official Z28.COM "Bottle Only" Car!!!

Went to track last night (T&T), and got my new best ET. I was shooting for a 11.999999 , but a combination of bad track prep and air was against me. It had been in the high 80s all day and was still up around the high 70/ low 80 degree mark when I ran. The humidity for the day was 78%. We've been getting so much rain here lately it feels like I'm in the Congo every day I wake up. Elevation was pretty much at sea level. Here's the timeslip-

R/T- .566

60FT- 1.91

1/8 ET- 7.80

1/8 MPH- 92.93

1/4 ET- 12.10

1/4 MPH- 115.38

I sprayed right off the line and got some wheelspin (normally cut 1.7s). Sadly this was my last chance to run the car before I leave for the basic training. When I get back from there, if the track is still open (I think it should be), I'll run it again with some hopefully better/cooler air. I think she'll go an 11.9X on a good day.

Mods are in sig. Shot was a 150. For those of you I don't talk to again before I leave, well, I'll talk to ya' when I get back!!!


Everybody take care....
