Default 02 SS stock Vs. z28, GT, Caliber s-r-t-4, honda

Well these were really at the track, but I dont feel like providing timeslips because they were no better this time than last time

First race

2000 z28 M6 - tr244 cam ( He said something like that?), slp lid, loudmouth, BG drag radials

First race of the night. We treed up, and went when it was green. I cut a 2.3 reaction time and him a 2.1. My car pulled out on him by about 40-50 in the beginning by about a length and a half and held it the entire way. By the end of the 1/4 mile I had run a 13.7 @ 101.95 mph, and him a 14.8 @ ? I cannot read it the edge of the slip is smudged LOL

The driver said he thinks his car is a lemon and needs a tune badly, but really I just think he needed a driver mod

Second race

2008 Dodge Caliber S-R-T-4, black, I guess stock

The lined them up. I cut a 2.3 60 foot and him a 2.5. I jumped on this car and just continued to pull. By the end of the 1/4 it was me at 13.8 and him at 15.8 . Should of stuck with the old design, those new calibers are slow

Third race

Some year Honda rice burner....big wing = 30 hp kinda guy

It really wasnt a race, I raped him from the beginning and he ran a high 17 or something me a 13.8 like usual

Fourth race

The best race

2006 Ford mustang GT, m5, intake/exhaust. Flame blue plaint job with ghost flames, rims, lambo doors (that were always open up until pre staging lane ) and transformer head symbolds where GT and the mustang symbolds would have been... oh god I wish I had a picture of that car LOL

We pull up together and he mugs me a bit, acts like he knows he is going to smoke me, asks me if I want to run and of course I do.

We get up and stage. I cut a 2.2 60 foot and him a 2.4 60 foot. I pulled on him by about a car at the begginning and held it all the way down the track. At the end it was me 13.8 and him 14.8

You could tell that guy was pissed, and all his "hommies" were raggin on him. It was good fun.

At that point, I was told I could no longer race until I got a helmet, so I decided to call it a night. 4 races, 4 wins. Nice

Thanks for reading

Slip the clutch man... you can do much better than a 13.8

Nice runs

Edit: Just noticed your MPG is in the toilet...high elevation? what was the DA?

yeah my mph sucks... I think its just my shitty tires at a shitty track. I need some of those nitto 555's and I think it will help.

It was especially hot and humid that night, and I dont know the DA. I am in temple texas though, if you can somehow help me figure out.

Punch in your zipcode and then pull up the date with the Detailed History and Climate lookup.

Then you can head over to http://www.greatlakesdragaway.com/co...onfactors.html

and punch in the temps/barro, etc...
