Default Ran a new personal best - 10.35

I have the slips in the race car still but from what i remember it was:

10.351 @ 128.32
1.39 60'

I love the radial slicks, best tire I've felt. I can have one hand on the steering wheel and its stable as hell. Yay!

Nice job Matt. Looks like I'm not going on Sunday, broke off a wheel stud yesterday putting on the new street tires. With alittle luck I'll be ready by next weekend. Should have the QA1's on by then as well.

Thumbs up

Good job Matt, Pete's old numbers in the car are in serious jeopardy now!
I wished I could've gone to the wall to see the car run but they were pulling lanes so fast I had to stay by mine the whole time, the only racing I got watch the entire time were cars launching in front of me!

Good job, Matt. How did the radial slicks feel on the top end of the track?

Very cool. I might mount up the DRs and make my first pass with the new setup that night if the weather stays nice. Maybe I'll see ya there.

Eh, I got the car down to a 12.26 in qualifying and it was on it's way to going a little quicker even as the air got cooler. But as I suspected would happen, I too got eliminated first round because the 12.0 competition was fierce, these guys run right on the money and even if I were great on the tree (I'm not LOL) I couldn't hold them off.
Had lotsa fun though and it was good seeing everyone.
