Default went to the track----

well the track sucked *****. the whole pit area is like a WRC rally course, dirt and pot holes the size of your car.same with the braking area at the end of the track, its almost a dirt road, almost.
but went out there because its the only track around,and well i wanted to hall ***. i got 3 runs in, best i pulled was

reac---.097
60ft---2.30
330ft--6.19
1/8----9.26
1/8mph-81.23
1/4----14.01
1/4mph--102.25

the D.A. here was 5200 it sucks. and the track prep was terrible.
to give you an example, my friends heads and cam 6spd could only sqweeze
out a 13.4 at 109mph 2.6 60ft and he had nitto's,and a 6spd car.
another buddy of mine has and svt cobra with a KB 2.3@ 20lbs tuned
with nitto's and could only get a 12.5 at 120mph. 2.5 60ft.
i would go as far as to say that our track here is in the top 10 worst tracks in the U.S.
i went to a web site and it does your times at sea level , it said i would have pulled a 13.05 at 109mph, soo im ok with that
