Default New Pb tonite at atco

Another crowded tuesday night at atco, only got three runs in but they were good ones. nice cool chilly night......12.07@112.19 1.67 60ft. , next pass(2 hrs. later) 12.02@112.24 1.64.....dammm, so close!! then made another pass about 30 mins. later and went 12.02 again!! I wasn't expecting to get this close til nov. so its only a matter of time til 11.90s happen, wow!! The ftra and skinnies definitley have helped. Three years and the car still reponds to minor mods incredibly well.

Way to go Greg! That car is a freak of nature. Your MPH is getting up there too! I wish I could 60ft like you. I really need to get back down to the track soon.

It's all in the 60' mostly, but it the powerband is a close second. His car prolly was made following bonus time.

However,for some reason Greg seems to have a perfect setup. Once he changes anything, or if he sprays it, could throw the whole thing outta balance.

According to two seperate hand held weather stations the DA was -200' at 9:30 pm. Not sure where you are getting it numbers from.

Thanx guys, yea I know all about the magic atco air but even though it was real cool out the da wasn't as much in the negative as one might have thought. Still I know we are lucky to run at a fast track but thats cool. Wait til november when the da is neg. 1000 and then we'll really have fun! And I'm running MT drag radials....they are awesome and hook everytime on my auto car, i'm sure they would work well for a 6 spd. but don't think the 10 bolt would like it for too long. Looking forward to seeing all of you guys down there for the rest of the year.
