Went up to Stanton last night to play as the weather report was looking good. The first of the real fall weather in MI :> ) And Mother Nature smiled and said "go fast". Well I did my best to do just that.
I started out at 5:18pm with a 12.803@105.75 and followed that with a 12.803@105.99
I came back out at 6:05 and ran 12.725@106.32 still nothing to brag about because my previous best is a 12.703@107.3
The next pass at 6:18 was a 12.698@106.82 I was pretty stoked as this was the first 12.6anything.
72°, 30.02, and 50% humidity. A fellow racer with a DA calculator said it was reading 96'....good air.
At 7:04 I ran a 12.675@106.93 kewl I'd just backed up my run. But there was more fun to be had!!
At 7:24 I went out and over loaded the converter and pushed deep into the lane resulting in a poor 60' and a 12.738@106.97
Well, I work the midnight shift 1 hour and 15 minutes from the track so time was really getting short. I went back for that one more pass before changing tires and packing up.
62°, 30.02 baro, and 60% humidity.
Drum roll please!!!

Is there anything done to your car? Converter? Drag Radials? Car on diet?

Good job!

Guido, Thanks
The car is by no means stock. I'll post the sig. this time so you can see the mods. Mostly traction stuff and the 'verter.
But the only weight reductions are spare&jack removal and front swaybar removed.
Race weight with my heavy duty butt in the seat is 3565-3595 depending on the scales and the amount of gas in the tank.
