Strange sent me the wrong gearset, so I didn't get to make it. Anyone else here run? How were the conditions? Crowded?

We were there yesterday and got a new PB, 12.05 @ 111. Had a total of 4 passes. Lots of cars.

i made 2 passes and took off right after the 2nd one around 2. i imagine i would have gotten 2 more right before they shut down if i would have stayed, i ran 12.7 @118 , never even got to spray it....

Wow. I imagine the short itme on that run wasn't too pretty. It sounds like track prep was miserable. Were you running on street tires or some type of drag tire?

Yeah way to many people i got two runs also and left, it probably wouldn't have been so bad if they ran sunday also.

for whatever reason, they cancelled today's street legal event. more track days are necessary, for sure.

I need to get my new car tuned and I will be at the next one. I am going to take the NX kit off the LT1 and put on the LS1. Should run good, Maybe we both can make it to the next one that would be cool:chug:

it's trapping high enough to tell me that it has the potential to ET well once I learn how to drive the car. getting an M6 car out of the hole is 3/4 of the battle ;)

If anyone can it would be you, I have seen you drive. You can phucking drive. I am sure 1 or 2 more times at the track you will have it down.:burn::burn::burn:

Thanks. New tires, gears, weight reduction, and a drag bar should help me.

I miss the 6spd from time to time. The car felt totally different...more fun I guess.
