Well my track rental at Atco yesterday really paid off. Car went a best of 12.93 @ 106.4 on a 1.9 60ft. Not too shabby for just a few bolt ons and a 141k mile motor. The car had more in it but I wanted to drive it home, so I took it easy on the ol 10 bolt. Im sure the 141k rockers/springs are holding me back, so those will get changed soon. I didnt get a slip of the 12.93 because it was the last run and they didnt print my ticket. I do have a go pro vid of it that Im waiting for my friend to upload. I do have a 12.94 slip and a 12.98 video of a grudge race between me and an ls2 01z. Let me know what you think guys think...

What was the DA?

 

Come to one of the NJFBOA meets this spring and I'll make you even closer
DA was around -400 during that pass. Was a very humid day. Wish it was around -1000 like it should have been...

 

I might with a new ride.. I'll show you haha

 

What advice do you have for launching?
What tires were you on?

 

Launching? I was dumping it at 4-5k. On the last run I dumped it at 5k but the clutch was a little hot and it slipped slightly (you can here it in the go pro vid). I was on shot toyo proxes tq drag radials...

 

That's what I heard then. I couldn't tell if you were holding it at 1/2 throttle after dumping it or what. Awesome vids.
