12.04 @ 115.71 - ******* short shifted twice and as soon as I did it I thought "Yep, that's probably gonna hurt me". Had to get gas then track went to ****. Sigh. The 1/4 tracks here aren't prepped very well. Today it was okay then track just got bad with all the street cars. There's a great 1/8th track and another one opening up that should be ******* awesome...but can't get a 1/4 slip. Sigh.

That's the problem we have here. Badass 1/8 shitty 1/4. Our 1/8 is almost half second faster depending on day.

Just knowing I'm a better driver is worth more than any cookie.

Well good news and bad.
Took the new car (04 vette) to the track and pulled a 12.9 at 107. Car is bone stock, luckily I have a decent track nearby, MIR.
Bad news..
Took the camaro to work Friday and was going to get the exhaust & sfc done afterwards at a coworkers when I hit a concrete block doing 60-65. This was around 4:30ish am when I'm not really "awake" yet. Given I should of been on the lookout with all the construction going on, ******* DC.
Anyways, I'll leave these here.







I was planning on getting the car tuned in a week or so but that'll be postponed. Hopefully it'll be squared away for OC in May. Then come the timeslips!
Be ready boys!

You'd be in the 14s all day in my car.


Conversely, I'd be in the 12s all day in yours.
