I don't remember seeing your car, what times did you pull? I don't think I saw any LT1 T/As race.

Technically it was a 10.72 @ 125.4 w1.49 smack you in the *** 60 ft

It did go a little better later on

Ran a 10.58 @ 127.96 w/ 1.511 sixty ft (on a 10.60 dial).
Ted, you'd be proud of me, I raced a guy on a 15.65 dial and the words "never lift" entered my mind (I did think of you and said **** it!!) as I went screaming by him at 128 mph

Finally getting on the puter, my buddy and I started belting back some beers after we got home around 6:30

With 60 ft times like those I suddenly don't mind changing tires as much

Uncle Marc

DJ!!! Hey I think you did good for the yaer and mileage, plus in test and tune that I was runnin they kept dumpin **** on the track, putting us up after 8 sec cars that launch so hard fuel dumps out the filler in the back!!! Anyways I just had a good day, it was the cars first day at the track I should have left after my first pass 13.2 because the second run i forgot how to shift (Dumbass) and hit a 13.4. Good baseline...now its time to plaaaayy!!!

It was good seeing other members at the track, hope to meet up again soon!

Props to all you guys runnin under 12. It was a great day to run, hope everyone had a good time!!

Which one, there were two. The Red SS was me, and there was a pewter Z( I won't menetion his name). I hit reverse on the 2-3 shift, and still did a 13.4 @ 91 mph, w/2.0 60', on the run. My best for the day was 13.1 @ 108 w/2.1 60'.

He didnt actually hit reverse,it happens on the six speed cars alot when going to 4th. I have done it as well, doesnt exactly hit reverse but it can chew the synchros. He ended up going to the final 6 before losing and was running 12.3's with cam only car.

Joe knocked me out in the final four as I couldnt launch the car after the clutch CRAP! Hey went against some kid with an obvious bracket car with a 15.7 dial in. He ended up winning but losing to the firebird after he beat joe though. I felt bad beating out the current points leader in round 6 though. The kid had a 14.50 dial in and he hit like 14.51 and a .499 light, he red lighted. Talk about skill My clutch went up on the launch and I ended up winning the round...no other reason other then I got lucky

I had a much better day today. My car was fixed last night and I made it to the finals but broke out by .02... Oh well, at least I am about 33 points closer to first place.
