Default New Best

ran 12.010 at 117.7 w/ a 1.78 60 ft. Full race weight plus my 265lbs ***. Talk about perfect conditions today at the track. Unfortunately, I only got 2 complete runs before my clutch started sticking. I think I would have broke into the 11's if my clutch held up. I should of run a short belt. Oh well. I figure w/ a 27 inch tire, some Crager light, a 1.7 60ft, and a short belt, I will be running 11's soon enough.

Not bad for a smog legal baby cam car and stock heads through full exhaust.

Great Day.

Arrhg! ALMOST 11s! I know the feeling. It's kinda bitter/sweet. You love the new best but there's still that little voice going, "Aaaaaalmost had it!"

Anyway, congrats! You'll get those 11s soon.

That happened to me last Super Bowl Sunday. Congrats on the new best.
