Default Results of first time out...

It was the first time out this year...Temps were mid to high 70's all day with humidity in the mid 70's. The DA was 2100 and the sun was beating down on the track the whole day. These were the best runs for the day out of the three.

20 PSI in ET street 3K drop

1.252(car bogged like nuts)
2.054
5.452
8.228
89.95
10.598
12.588
112.78

18 PSI in ET street 3.5K drop

.586
1.769
5.361
8.236(missed 2nd)
87.45
10.651
12.680
112.06

I think the second gear synchro is screwed since it takes a couple times to get it to go smoothly. If I shift a couple times in and out of second it goes the 2nd and third time no problem. If not you really have to fight it in. Raceweight was 3520. 425/409 at the wheels, M6, strange 12 bolt with 4.11's, all BMR suspinsion, -2* pinion angle 11.5*16 ET's.

Im hoping I can dip into the 11's with some cooler weather and better driving.

Nice runs first time out.

I think you should have mid 11's@120 plus with that combo with more practice.
