who's time slip is that? That slip is from a 10 second car. 11.7 @ 88 mph with a 1/8 mile time of 6.9. I call BS

it's mine. the race I was running that day was only 8th mile, but it was held at the 1/4 mile track, so I made the pass and let off after the 8th. That 8th mile time is the fastest its ever gone, but I've never made a full 1/4 mile pass with it. I'm hoping it will go 10s, but i haven't made a 10 sec pass yet with it.

here's a photo from that day, in case you think it's really not my car's time slip. the car was number 122 that day (compare to the top of the timeslip)

with those 1/8 th mile times you should be damn close to a 10 second pass

I can assure you, the second that car makes a 10 sec pass, I'll be thrilled and mree than happy to tell everyone about it. Really, I think there's no reason it shouldn't skim high 10's, but like I said, I'll say it's a 10 sec car when I have a 10 sec timeslip.

By the way, that timeslip is a bit misleading (I had forgotten about this when I posted the timeslip) the guy running the race said I had to stage with the back tires (even though I didnt want to) so that time is just a hair faster than the car actually is in the 8th. I was running James and Shelia's Camaro, and I think they're on here, so they can vouch for it.

Anyway, ask anyone who knows me -I don't street race, and I don't run for money- so there's really no reason I'd lie and say my car's slower than it is. Haha, hell, I bust my butt working on it, I'm more than happy to tell people if it's running well!
