Default New pb....wow

Atco last night 11/3: It was downright frigid, the air was just too good to be true but when its that cold at night with no sun up to warm the track everyone wondered if any traction would be possible. Well after a few runs of 12.80s on not so great 60 ft times i figured that was as good as it was gonna get. So tried the other lane ( right side ) after seeing some of the guys i know hooking pretty well and putting down some personal bests of their own the car went 12.76 and 12.72 with much better 60 ft. times then 12.69@109.76 ( new pb ) then after waiting for a clean up and having the car cool down alot i was rewarded with a shocking 12.60@110.14 on a 1.89 60 ft. time. (all pb's again ). I know there are alot of fast ls1's all over but for the minimal mods i have done to the car it has to be on the freakish side. lid filter cutout and a mild tune. Also this was done on my rsa street tires. Once again as i have stated before these ls1's are just incredible motors. Man i love this car!

Congrats on the new best

"if you are running a car that is 9.90 or faster, it's highly recommended that you do not run for the rest of the night." You know the traction sucks when you hear that over the loud speaker at atco last night lol

Congradulations on the new best time.

I need a trailor, some sticky tires and a weekend to get to NJ for some racing!! It'd be nice if the tracks stayed open until the first snow fall around here!

I can vouch, amazing run, and it came against me lol. 2.3 60' spinning real bad running a 12.5 lol. Yeah, the cars got 11's but damn a 12.6 for a basically stock LS1
