Trying out the MMS229 tonite

Arctic front went through last night and damn is it cold today. Looked up weather.com and around 7PM tonite, it'll be 32 degrees, 35% humidity and approximately 30.20 barometer.

According to pain's DA calculator that makes the DA about -2500ft tonite <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

should be a good comparison to my 11.71 run back in december <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: Trying out the MMS229 tonite

It's gonna be hard to get the car to hook up in conditions like that. If you can manage to do so, the results should be interesting to say the least...

Good luck with the new cam.

Air will be good but the cold ground will be cold. Wind is the enemy too.If u can hook it u will run well.

Re: Trying out the MMS229 tonite

traction is my biggest concern <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> I'll tame the launch down some (Pretty easy to launch softer with bigger gears without bogging <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> )

I'll progressively get harder and harder of a launch till I spin...this is what I'll do in theory but sometimes my clutch gets the best of me <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />
