Default New Best time on motor

I went to HRP tonight and got some new Motor times. I ran a few on the gas, but wasnt hooking worth a crap. Here is my best run on motor
60' 1.984
330 5.554
1/8 8.436
mph 86.37
1000 10.879
1/4 12.935
Mph 109.70

I have added nothing to the car, just a bit colder than the last time at the track. All my motor runs were in the 12's. I was very happy about that. They were 12.985,12.966, and 12.935, The MPH was the same on 2 of the runs at 109.80, and the fastest ET was a little slower mph, at 109.7. I pulled another 1.80 60 on the juice, then the tires broke loose, so crappy times on the juice. best of the day on juice was a 12.21. (it didnt help that i had a little fun with some other people on the street the night before) I was also happy to see that my 60' times were in the 1.9xx range all night on motor... These are all times with stock runflat tires and 2.73 geared auto.

Nice times, I'd be there with ya if I could get my 60ft time down. I think my 13.14 run was a 2.14 60'.

I dont think I'm going to wait for that 12.9, the tracks are closed and I've already got the cam kit sitting here ready to go in <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">
