Re: Fast 60'--slow times?

That was at MIR (Maryland International Raceway), I don't go down there often. I went down for a points cup in a Local F-body racing community I belong to. I race in the Pure Street class, which I lost in the first round BTW..

I can be found at Milan (closer) and Stanton (nicer), far less often than I would like. I'd like to try the US-131 dragway too... looks nice when I drive past it.

Tried Lapeer... it sucks.

Have you ever tried Ubly? I haven't been there but have heard good things. Lapeer is funny, the first 100ft are so wavy that everytime a car launches you can see its rear bounce lol

True. A lot of times the slower cars can get a better 60' because of the fact that they have less power related traction issues.

Re: Fast 60'--slow times?

so you think that's about right then? I always hear everyone saying they trap 100mph stock. I just wondered if I am having a problem, i really need to scan this thing.

Yeah, only the AWD cars were getting traction at Lapeer the day I was there.

No, I've never been to Ubly. Never even heard of it, actually. Where is it?
