Default Finally hit the track!

Here is the short version since I just typed the long version and had the server error and I hit submit

Anyway, newly rebuilt M6 (very tough to shift) street tires and a guy that has never raced a stick car and has not been to the track in 5 years.

4 runs with a best et of 13.110@107
Best MPH pass of 13.229@109
all runs between 13.1 and 13.4 with 2.04 to 2.153 60' times

If i can learn to drive and get some lighter wheens with drag radials and skinnies it should easily hit low 12's

I'll throw up some vids later this week

Andy

Andy... Sweet man! I cant wait to take mine down the track. However unless I put some sort of good tire on the back I dont think my times will be that great. haha. Seems like if you got your 60' times down, and got some sticky tires that car would run pretty good!

Ive never raced at a track before. In fact...Ive never owned a manual trans car before. Ive driven plenty... I can row the gears good enough... but its sure to be an experience

Post up the vids Ide love to see them!!
