I feel spoiled now after looking at that track.

Do you do any weight reduction? I'm assuming at least the spare and tools?

You should! It's the oldest running track in Texas. The only reason I go there it's 15 minutes from my house. Bigger, nicer tracks are 2 1/2 to 3 hours from me. I make those trips once or twice a year.

lol, very hard to do in 3005ft of DA! I hate to use 'corrected' times, but the 13.8 does correct to 13.37 lol


Here's my best on video. 13.6 @ 103

Here's a couple quick local Stangs

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVMzEsKlykE

The first one has run 10.90's, but it was damn hot. He could have broken 10's in the heat, but he sat on his SCT tuner and couldn't put in his big boy tune.

lol, the track is so horrible. I had to buy DR's because my 240whp cant hook up there lol.

At nicer tracks, I get better 60 foots on 235mm all seasons than at my local track on 255mm DR's!
