I was stuck in the 12.50s all night long, even though i got my 60ft down from 2.051 to 1.871.

My best for the night was 12.458 @ 114.23mph with a 1.924 60ft
Worst run was 12.742 2 112.50mph with a 2.051 60ft

Supersp0rt ran 12.211 @ 119.78mph with a 2.125 60ft.

I raced Supersp0rt 7 times and only lost twice but the only thing I had going for me was a better 60ft becasue once he stopped fishtailing and hooked up he would usually catch up with me by the 1000ft mark. we usually ran within a tenth of each other but he was 4-6mph faster.

Damn, turbos freaking rock. What else does he have done to the car? How much PSI?

Yday wasn't all that good of a day to race. The damn humidity and mid 80s dont help at all with our cars either.

It got pretty good later on in the evening, track prep and traction is what hurt us the most.

argh...no traction is right. i couldnt pull a decent 60' to save my life! no doubt, grease you owned me EVERY launch!

i am running 6psi with a speed inc stage 3 trans and a yank st3500.thats all of my power mods. i have CC 918 valvesprings, rear end girldle and no susp work whatsoever. maybe thats what i need to concentrate on, lol!

i think when i head back in october for some nice cold weather im going to buy a gallon of vht compound and a spray bottle and help myself out.

hes right, the weather wasnt bad later in the night, but you could tell the humidity was still kind of high...o well. we had fun, thats what counts...good runs man! hope to see more of you guys out in october.

Sounds like you had a good time guys.

I'll be back out in a few weeks...new differential so I should get some good 60's...fix my engine problem and that should make the car considerably stronger..

well see
