Default How did everyone do this past weekend ?

I won street at Redline. Didnt build any points though, done it on a buy back. Felt sick when I got to the track. Got two time trials with reaction times of .6xx & .7xx. Ate some food and layed down before brackets started. Feeling better now I know I have to do something about my R/T's. I did alright, .459 red in round one. Bought back in and cut .502 next round. Ended up making to the finals paired with a friend. We agreed to a split so we were racing for bragging rights.

8.26....dial.....7.69
.5936....r/t......5466
1.827...60ft.....1.726

Went a couple of 11.7's and 11.8 until another nitrious backfire took out my MAF (again) . Was bracket racing, so had to guess at the times. 75 degrees, 90+ humity, still ran 12.9-13.0 with basically a broken MAF. At least I went a couple rounds, before the damn red-eye struck again. How you cut a .003 red line?

Default Re: How did everyone do this past weekend ?

went out to run some motor passes just to get the feel for the car again. realized that 27 inch tires and 3.73's arent for motor passes. it bogged every pass except my last one and then i missed 3rd gear on the last pass!!!!

probably had a 11.70 going on my last pass.

1.68 60
4.91 330
7.69 1/8 (missed 3rd before the 1/8)
12.04 @ 114.5 throwing it back into 3rd and finishing the run.

it was running 116.5's all night with 1.80 60's, so i think it might have a 119 on a good 60 foot.

cant wait to juice it again! hope theres a 10 in there somewhere for me!
