Default New Stock Internals Best!!

Went to Cecil County last night for a little "TnT" before the EFA Shootout. Was able to click off a new best:

60 1.569
330 4.682
1/8 7.357
MPH 91.78
1000 9.673
1/4 11.634
MPH 115.14

Cecil was it's usually Friday night self.. slip 'n slide.
----------------------------------------------

This morning headed down to MIR for the EFA Shootout. Was a great day of racing! Had a BLAST!!

I was low qualifier in LS1 pure street (LS1 Bolt-on class) with a 11.58 @ 115.84 (1.54) Then went on to win the class in a VERY close race with Hawkn01. Every pass today beat my old best. Best run of the day was:

60 1.531
330 4.648
1/8 7.315
MPH 92.14
1000 9.623
1/4 11.574
MPH 115.54

Thanks goes to East Side, Tbyrne, TSP, F-Body Central, Lethal EFI Performance and TMI Auto for sponsoring the event & class!!

My goal was to get a 11.5 without turning the car into a rolling shell and I got it today! Car is now at a approximate 3360 raceweight. Addition of Year One carpet and BMR K member count for the recent weight loss.

SWEEET! Remember back in 00 how 11.5 was the holy grail number for Bolton ETs?

I'm sure we will be seeing a lot of new best in the next few weeks. Gotta love that fall weather.

Not a big deal but I think that the Baro #s are wrong.11AM-29.90B/60T/43H =+176.Seems like whatever was used to measure the barometer was stuck on 29.52 all day.

Linda, I have my roll bar ready to go in, and had a set of DR lined up. But, looks like I'll be in Japan for a conference that weekend.

Not sure if Tim is planning to go or not. Hopefully so.. Like to see the East Coast represented well

No doubt,easy to see minus 1200 or better.

11.57 at a plus DA is kick ***,I really think 11.4s are in it with some great weather.

I just noticed that you live in Fredrick so MIR is your home track.I wish we had a nice track close by here on Long Island,from the web site it looks like a great track.

Nice runs. I look at the list & it makes me wish I was still doing the bolt ons race, it was so much more fun then trying to figure out this new combo.

Might have to get a 01 stock motor some day, & try it all over again.
