Best I did was 12.55 again but my mph picked up almost 2mph. My launching and tire spin is killing me. We'll see what happens with the incoming dragpack.

4th pass resulted in me missing 3rd gear and again trying to power shift the car. Now it will not go in 3rd at all

Oh well 3rd pass was my new best. I left the slip in the car but I know the important stuff

1.511 60'
10.404@ 134.59mph

I think the 1/8 mph was 106 not 100% sure I will post the full slip tomorrow along with trying to get the video up.

Gonna take the car to some car shows over the weekend and then yank the trans out next week

I was happy to finally make it down this season and I broke on the line, I was the black SS with the silver scoop. Left at 4,000 on motor and the drive shaft broke and actually snapped the BMR safety loop off as well. Thank you for keeping my rear floor in one piece BMR.

Nice seeing those of you I knew down there. Glad Fran and Sebastian bugged me all day to come out. Ended up cutting some good 60' times and a new best ET.

Glad so many people came out. Sorry about your luck Matt, car would've been raw. Track was biting hard.

Yeah she isn't too happy about that. Thanks again for all the helpful info you gave me. Think I might try the limited slip additive to see if the trans will drive around on the street for me with out too much of a problem
