New Track Times I went out to Milan Dragway last night just to test and tune. The DA was 2400' and it was hot as **** out. Anyway, I pulled right off the highway and right up to the staging lanes basically. My first run went like this:
.736 RT
2.405 60'
6.647 330'
9.806 1/8 ET
79.91 1/8mph
12.431 1000'
14.643 1/4 ET
102.51 1/4 mph
Needless to say that's the slowest I've ever run and I was pissed and a little embarrassed. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Embarrassed]" src="gr_emb.gif" />
My short times sucked so I decided to play around with air pressure. By the end of the night, I had 23psi in the rears ( <img border="0" alt="[bullshit]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bs.gif" /> GS-C's) and 38psi up front. That helped me hook even though I still spun quite a bit. My best run of the night is as follows:
.619 RT
2.138 60'
5.809 330'
8.782 1/8 ET
83.81 1/8mph
11.319 1000'
13.476 1/4 ET
104.69 1/4 mph
My old best was 13.56 I believe and that was in 55 degree air. It was 86 yesterday. My only new mod is a hooker cat back so I'm pretty happy with a 13.4 in bad air.
On the way home, I pulled a new Lightning pretty bad too. I'll post that in the kill forum. Overall it was a fun night. Next on the mod list is a converter. I'm anxious to drop into 12's.
