I had fun tonight. Nice meeting you Donny.

Beat our personal best with the T/A by a long shot. Dropped 7 tenths with just a converter and some tires

12.275 at 108.12 with a 1.629 60'.

Had probs with the car hitting the rev limiter on the 2-3 shift. Track wouldn't hold as the night went on the and temps dropped. Little spin almost every run after the best. Last run of the night had a 1.595 60' but hit the limiter on the 2-3 shift and ended up with a 12.339. So i was pleased with the results, there is another tenth or 2 in it. Hold on 10 bolt! Got to get the tune checked out about it hitting the limiter.

I was glad to get there even though I only got 1 run in that was sucessfull. I took off easy and barly shifted into 4th at the top end. 13.5 no spary. I need my cluth fluid beeded out more. My ohter runs I could not get my car in 3rd gear. I definatly like it up there better than Mason dixon. I could have probably got in 6-10 passes if I wanted.
