Default still very happy

still very happy

I decided last minute to head to Byron on Saturday morning to make a few runs.I already had the slicks and skinnies on so the car was ready.


I get there at 9 a.m,and do a quick plug change.

The winds were horrible.The track was only running 1/8 mile. (17+ mph head wind)They finally allowed the T&T guy/girls run 1/4.

The weather was not good so i did not expect any new best
The DA at 12 was +3000 and temp was 84 and humidity 65%

I made a few N/A passes and the best i could go was

11.52 @ 117 w/1.67 60ft (1.58 last weekend)

and then my best of 2 spray runs was

10.22 @ 132 w/ 1.47 60ft. (1.38 last weekend)

I was down roughly 4 mph all day

The car was spinning and still pulling both fronts 6"

I then put some air in the tires and headed home.

so i am more then happy to run a low 10 sec. pass with traction issues and bad weather and still drive home and go out cruising the rest of the night with no issues

I can't wait to get some nice weather and turn things up a bit.

I should have some nice pics up soon from the track
