Default MikeP2002 runs 9.9's at 140mph at MIR

Congratulations sunshine we're proud of you!!!!!!! You deserve your own thread. Let us in on all the details!!!!!!!

Mikep2002 9.91@140 60'--1.48 02corvette coupe D1sc--- Manual trans daddy!!!
Update..... My little manual transmission street car managed to drive 264 miles round trip to MIR and finally run the little 9. Special thanks to RKT56 for a driveline that both excels on the track and still manages to give me 28MPG on the trip... She was down a pinch on power and the heat was on Monday dam in the upper 80s but she got it done.
She is going to be a monster sunshine!

rough crowd here in the eastern section mr.Turdy... lmao... thanks guys appreciate the congrats. sorry no video was a one man band that day... I offered to cover both aj and zturd rental fee to come down and play but they were just to busy.

Dont know whats in store for the future. A new belt comes tomarrow and stang banging in a few weeks thats what the focus is now. I just dont have that uber way of describing my runs. It pulled right off the line and I was happy... I made one more attempt after that run left the tire pressure alone hoping the car would hook and it spun hard. the biggest challange was the heat/humidity. after my burnout i could barely grasp the shifter so i was keeping a towel in the car right up to the point i staged to keep the shifter from slipping from my hand.

it was tool bag day for me. A bunch of outlaw cars and a pro-mod car with there high end rigs and full crews and then there was silly me in my street car with a jack and a couple of tires and my plastic tool box...
