Fun night though nonetheless.
Also there was no track prep last night.

Hey Demonic I think i did talk to ya last week I was down there last friday also but I have met so many new ls1 guys in the past month since I bought my Z. Its a 2000 red auto was going 13.20s and 30s last week......put a lid and holley powershot filter and went 13.00s last night needless to say I was very surprised....and happy to go that fast on street tires being stock other than the lid. Once again even in the short time owning my car I am amazed at how strong they run and how well they respond to mods.

The ls1 is a mighty engine and your lucky Jay Fisher Pontiac is real close to you ,his prices are honest.I can't believe I made 8 passes for 15 dollars.Atco is a great track.Some times @ E-town I only get 3 runs in the whole day and it's 30 bucks.Now I have to work on my 60'

Good runs Pete, damn 8 runs and that's a strong trap What was your best 60'? I managed to get 3 runs in today and it was $25 for that. My results are here: https://ls1tech.com/forums/12-second-club/408516-new-best.html

Damn at 14 psi? I left mine at 30 which is what I use on the street. Did you give a good enough burnout?
