Default New best at Etown tonight

Track was empty-got 6 runs in.
Very cold track, nobody was hooking but I did ok. Got a couple of 1.41 60' but I was trying different shift points and hit the limiter on the better 60' times.
Ran 10.4's all night but on my last run I clicked off a new best of:
10.383 @ 128.40 with a 1.436 60'.

I wish they would have prepped the track "a little", a couple of racers left because they just couldn't hook. I was one of about 2 or 3 slick cars there and we were mixed up with the street tire cars so I guess any prep went out the window.

If BARRY was there they would have prepped it better.

Good thing you didn't go tonight, you would've never hooked and you would have said "I told you so" haha

Congrats on the new times.
I do get some benefits when i am there at the track. Last time i was there on a wed i was dumping off the rev limiter with the nitrous to get out of the hole.

Hope to see you run those times on the 24th. I wont be in the 10s the 24th. The nitrous will not be ready in time. Just trying to get the new 6.0L Mini Stroker done and run to race.

Ali, I'm gonna keep it for now.

Barry, I hope you can get to the track soon on one of your wed nite trime trials, I need to get a 10.2. The track was BAD. No heat, no VHT, no nothing. You can get in the 10's with the mini-stroker N/A. No?

Pete, if you come to hang out, you can take a pass or two in my car. Marc can wash it.

Thanks for the props guys/gal.
