Default New Best @ Carlsbad

Headed down to C-bad today to test out the new mods.....since last time (ET in sig) the car has got an AAP ported TB and an ASP pulley.....

The car was in the low .30's all day at mid/high 110's and was dead hooking with mid/high 1.7x 60's.....so I let the car cool down for about an hour and half and got a new best of...

12.24 @ 111.32mph

Timeslip looks like this:

1.75 60'
7.83
88.55
12.24
111.32 mph

Needless to say I am happy...but I also think that I won't be able to get an more 60' out of the 2.73's.......car is still full weight (sans jack and spare) and on a pro-kit with no suspension mods at all...

Joe

Thanks! That is on ET Streets at a $hitty track, but I guess that's the one advantage of 2.73's....they don't hit the tires that hard....
