Default Another HOT track outing...

2nd time I've had the car at a track this week. About the same weather today...90+, humid. I asked another racer and he said the DA was 4140' . At least this track dead-hooked for me....my 60's were 1.87, 1.86, 1.89, 1.95 (spun a little), and 1.89.

Best run =
60'...........1.874
330'..........5.451
1/8...........8.403
(mph)........83.45
1/4...........13.158
(mph)........103.08

'99 Z28 A4; mods in sig.

Trap speed seems a little low, but the car is full weight (jack/spare still installed) with 17x9 chromies at all four corners and I weigh 250#. Maybe a tune would pick it up a little on the big end. Then again, it will be solidly in the 12s when it cools down a few degrees.

Any thoughts?

Nice runs. The fall temps will bring you into the 12's as she sits now.

yep, I agree. 12s are just cooler weather away (or if impatient, more mods)
