It runs mid 5.60s-low 5.70s in cooler weather with the F1A. 5.64 @ 122 is the best its run in the 1/8 with the 346, havent had the new 365 in any good weather yet.
A 50 shot would do great, I did that with my old P1SC car and it really woke it up in the summer, but most local stuff is single power adder only. I'm not complaining about it really, I enjoy racing in the heat about as much as the car likes it, but the car is sitting here so I may as well do something with it

Thats getting it done!
I feel you there, nothing like getting in a 3 layer fire suit, helmet and gloves when its 100* outside.

This year I bought the fancy new G-Force lightweight 3.2A/5 jackets/pants. What a HUGE difference over the old Simpson stuff I had that felt like winter clothes. Makes it a little more bearable but its still hot, I look at it as free weight loss..

Since I'm posting I may as well put some decent pics up I took Saturday morning before I left since I'm thinking of putting it up for sale soon. 10 years old and still looks pretty good on the original paint..

Well having fun is what its all about. I hate the heat but its kind of hard to avoid around here. Its not even so much the heat but the humidity is the killer. But the nice thing about doing the heads up stuff is there is no waiting in the staging lanes. You get called up and you go, busy T&T days are brutal sitting in the staging lanes for an hour in the heat never knowing when you are going to go, thats the worst..

Plus every pass is wide open, not like bracket or index where sometimes you have to let off to win. My car wasnt really fast enough to win either of these races, but sometimes just getting down the track clean every round can get you a win.

Just getting bored, I'd like to go a little quicker but this is such a great zero maintenance and safe package I hate to spend the 10-20K I need to step it up another second and screw it up. Figure it may be easier to pick up a nice 25.2 or 25.5 94+ mustang (I like the bodystyle) and do a SBF F2/F3. Just so many parts available for those things..
