Default Went to atco tonight

I had a blast with Greg, Mike, and our friend with the yellow C5 Z06. No new best, but here's the times....

R/T.........60 ft.............1/8........................1/4
.159......1.929......8.155 @ 88.06......12.621 @ 109.70
.008......1.935......8.137 @ 88.74......12.581 @ 110.42
.007......1.878......8.052 @ 88.33......12.480 @ 111.08
.056......1.878......8.043 @ 88.50......12.472 @ 112.34

Highlight of my night was my 2nd and 3rd R/Ts. Even the announcer said...wow, nice R/T out of the vette

Those r/ts are awesome! Great times as well. I go bracket racing every year, and this summer my friend got a .000 r/t in his '06 GXP. I was happy with .5s!

LOL I know!!! I about to give up on that car. Replaced the springs/seals/retainers, head gaskets/valve cover gaskets and didn't touch anything else on the car......now the TC won't lock up and it won't downshift at WOT It worked fine before the new springs

Me and my brother were there also, I was running my 98 Z and he was trying to figure out how to drive his his 05 GTO he just bought. It was his first time running at the track and his best time was when he forgot to turn the Traction control off Ha! I ran a 13.38 @104.36 and then two 13.5's(kept bogging). So I have some modding to do before lil Bro figures out how to launch. It was a good time and alot of nice cars.

He had the black GTO with the GM certified tags on it. We both got there around 7, I ran 3 times and he ran 4. I think you were always at the other end of the line from where we were. I ran that red 00 Z28 once, man I like that car. We plan on going down again in the next week or two.
