Post up your best L.A. Invasion 2009 time here Post up your best L.A. Invasion 2009 time here and your set up if it's not in your sig or if it's not up to date in your sig. Post whether you got what you were hoping for as well.
I'll start with mine. Full bolt-ons(90/90)+cam
I was hoping for an 11.999 but my best time for the day was 12.13@115.60 with a 1.84 60ft
Thank you to MrElectric03 for telling me to do a 2nd gear burnout it helped my car stop loosing traction and go from 12.4 to my best of 12.13. Also thanks to Ryne for fixing my check engine light and allowing me to use his skinnies. Thanks to geovette for allowing me to load all my crap into his trailer all day. Mark for setting up the event. Lastly thanks to Sean from motorgen for taping all my runs.

Cool Moe, glad I could help.
My best was a lousy 12.4 with a 1.7 60ft. Car was launching better and better just finding the right pressure for these tires...never ran on slicks before. I need to learn to launch better and for sure need a tick master cyl so I can shift. Everytime I would race you moe id barely start to reel you in then would shift and you would get farther away.

What was your mph for that run? It really took all the runs I did to figure out what I needed to do to go faster. Ryne helped me by having me put the air from 14psi to 18 and you helped me by having me do a better burnout. It took me a while to get better at shifting and getting comfortable with everything. You know you're capable of pulling me. Every time we ran I though oh I'm gonna get raped glad neither me nor you got raped.
Yea the car pulls hard when its in gear, like I said before today I had probably raced on a track less than 5 passes and have never launched a car with anywhere near this much power, so needless to say I have alot to learn.
Hopefully I can get a Tick Master Cyl soon and at least get to irwindale to try it out.
Also got something in one of my ET Streets on the way home cause when I pulled in my driveway my right one was almost flat
Damn Fontucky streets.

Like the above poster I was hoping for a 11.99 time slip. Anyways my heavy grey 1989GTA Trans Am with a 355, TPI and NA went 12.12@111.27 with an A4. Backed it up with another 12.12 run. Gotta love those Hoosier street radials for consistancy. I did 6 runs with ease with lots of cool down time in between the runs. Next year with the new motor I will be looking for mid 11's.
