Default ESP does it again 8 sec pass
East Side Performance had a chance to seek to the track at Cecil County Raceway and the results were a new best for the car 8.95@151mph

here is how the run breaks down

60ft...1.33
ET ....8.95
mph...151

will have video of the pass later tonight, and more details from the time slip
