Times from last night
Couldn't get traction to save my life last night but I still managed a new best so I'm pretty happy.
60' - 2.191
330' - 5.695
1/8 - 8.507
MPH - 87.89
1000 - 10.918
1/4 - 12.954
MPH - 110.85
That's with an MTI lid, !filter (the K&N was really dirty so I yanked it out), FRA and the DS Predator (with their "stock" tune. IOW, I haven't played with it). Everything's still in the car too, spare, jack, etc...
Temp. was around 50, humidity was probably about 70 percent, so the weather was pretty good.
I'm definitely happy with the car but I really need some DRs, the stock RS-As aren't cutting it (no pun intended), my best 60' with them so far is a 2.09. With a pair of Nittos and a 1.90-1.95 60', I think the car is good for some 12.60s. I've still got the stock salad shooters from my '96 so I think I'm gonna try to get a couple Nittos before the track reopens in a few weeks. Then I'll be able to actually see what it's capable of, instead of guessing.

Nice times Aaron! Which car was yours, I was there Fri too. I had my new clutch in and had borrowed a friends set of BFG's. I did a best of 13.134 @ 107.23 with a 2.025 60'. Those BFG's get so sticky!! On that run, I launched at like 3500 rpm, and it dead hooked and bogged!!! So then on my next run, I tried launching at 3700 rpm and I cut my best R/T on this run, with a .576, but I think I did some damage to the rear. It made a clunking sound off the start, and then made the same sound anywhere above like 5,000 rpm during the run, and when it made this noise, it started to like stop accelerating, so i'm gonna get it checked out when I get back from NY. Hopefully not too much damage, otherwise gotta start savin for a 12-bolt before anything else. It's weird though, cause it drove home perfectly fine the entire ride. If anyone might know what could be the problem with the rear from what I explained, let me know, thanks.
