Default Consistant M6? (track results)

I knew I wasn't going to get a new best last night at Navasota because of the weather but I still wanted to get some more seat time to get ready for the clash of the Titans at HRP on the 28th. (running the 12.0 class)


Run 1:

1/8 -- 8.075

Run 2:

1/8 -- 8.069

These two runs were with me shifting the car at about 5k. The next set of runs I was shifting at 6k like I usually do.

Run 3: -- 7.644

Run 4: -- 7.646

Run 5: -- 7.639

Run 6: -- 7.642

Run 7: -- 7.648


All of the runs were right at 90mph and unfortunatly the 60' timers were broke Raceweight was 3540 DA was +2400 at the time of the second set of runs.

This was the first time for me to "try" being consistant at the track in a while, I usually just go out and try different launch techniques and shift points every few runs to see how the car reacts to driving changes. Over all I had a bad *** time and it felt damn good to get back to the track

Congrats! When you get used to the 6 speed it is very consistent. I ran 11.17, 11.16, 11.15, 11.15
