Default *** Video! *** The "Black Gal's" Run

I posted it over in the Forced Induction Section... 11.43 @ 120.

No track prep that night, but still, not a bad run. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

ET Streets.
I was REALLY disappointed that they hadno track prep.

I can tell from the difference they make in the street that they are better for traction than BFGs or Nittos, but I ran my best of 10.98@125.83 MPH on a set of BFGs. BUT, the track prep was EXCELLENT!

If I could get that kind of prep with the ET Streets, I might actually take a the front wheels off the ground ever so slightly. <img src="gr_eek2.gif" border="0">

... 'course, then I'd probably be immediately in the market for a rearend. <img src="gr_sad.gif" border="0">

Thanks... <img src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" border="0">

It was actually 11.40 @ 120.23 MPH

I even watch it a lot. It's fun to see!

I wish I had a shot of my 10.98 @ 125.83 MPH run. <img src="gr_sad.gif" border="0">
