Another new best
Another new best Well the weather was a little warmer today, and the track was hooking a bit better than last weekend, so I came home with a new personal best.
12.918 @ 109.66 w/ a 1.95 60'
That was my first sub 2.0 60'.
DA was 421
Raceweight was a very piggish 3600.
I think the thing holding me back now is my stock LS1 clutch, and my launch could use a little more work. I jump out of the hole really well, but then I bog just enough to nose-over. I got up to about a 4K rpm launch on my last run, still hooked, still bogged.
All in all, a great day. LOnSLO also posted a new best with his stock headed F1 cammed car, but I'll let him post that up himself.

Re: Another new best How did you figure that DA?? That would be kinda handy for us non-engineering types. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_images/icons/tongue.gif" />

Re: Another new best Nice 60' Brandon, i still havent hit a sub 2.0 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> , but oh well, there is always next time... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Re: Another new best I think I'm done with the track until I put my headers and subframes on. Hopefully I can come up with enough cash to buy myself a clutch in the next month or so as well. You should have come out today instead of woring about that un-important stuff you had to do <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
