In the tens first time out. My first pass with the Mecham got a little crazy after I hit second gear but I was able to keep it under control. The first was an 11.23 @124 on a 1.69 60', the third/last pass was a 10.93 @127 on a 1.66 60'.
For my first time out with four year old ET streets, full weight 3700+ and road racing susp. im very pleased. Everyone was having issues with the track, it wasnt a good night to run your car for sure. At one point I waited in the staging lanes for close to two hours.

Track prep was a real issue with everyone that night. between that and the four year old 26/10.5 ET streets I was walking a fine line. Im sure I could use more seat time also, it was my first time on slicks and my first with a six speed.

Thanks again guys!
Its so convenient to run here at Thunder valley. I dont have a trailor ither so the car is driven everywhere or I would have been there last weekend. Thats all I need is to break something that far from home.
I hope to get it back to the track before it gets hot again with some fresh tires and a little less weight. When I tried to go over 5k on th launch I spun and also spun good going into second on every pass.

Yeah I know what ya mean about the convenience factor, I put the slicks and skinnies on and drive mine to Tulsa Raceway Park and I live a solid 30min from it. Sad thing is, I have a 03 Duramax I could be haulin it with but I have no car trailor, haha.
