PEPE HRP Track Times/Vids Sep 8th '06 Well PEPE's getting closer to 10's, made 5 passes, dropped the air to 12 lbs on the 28x13.5 ET Streets and no pansy bogging 4500rpm launches like last month. My digcam is not the best quality & doesn't vid/zoom so couldn't get the board times on vid.
2nd pass (launched @5200rpm...screwed up a little staging):
R/T: .272
60': 1.781
1/4: 11.678 @119.67

4th pass (launched @5600rpm):
R/T: .518
60': 1.689
1/4: 11.397 @120.56
video - http://s36.photobucket.com/albums/e5...t=MOV01812.flv
LAST & BEST PASS my buddy didn't record, but (launched @6300rpm):
R/T: .367
60': 1.605
1/4: 11.349 @121.33

Appreciate everyones comments!
On a funny note my track GOOF of the day was my 4th run I think, I pull up heat the tires and a Chrysler 300 is beside me, I courtesy stage and am waiting...and waiting.......so I look back and he's still back there, thinking what the hell come on already! Well guess I slipped the clutch a tad and full staged unknown to me, turned back to the tree and the lights were dropping
...sheesh all I had time to do was street-light punch it @2000 rpm... blah...that was a 32.2 run

, I used to speed/power shift without side-stepping really well, guy who taught me was one of the best I've seen and was not a fan of side-stepping because of the breakage risk if you screw up, his racecar put down way more power than mine does. I've tried it though on mine and I struggle with it, just need more practice.

....honestly I felt sorry for her, 1st time to the track I understand everyone has to learn but she was freaking dangerous! She almost backed into the car behind her while staged at the tree, the light man was ready to Matt Hughes her.appreciate the comments from all of you
