Default New Best!

Went to the track last night, I think the humidity was at 110%! Anyway new time is in sig but the run went like this:

launch @ 5K (at 5200 it spun)
1.71 @ 60'
5.03 @ 330'
7.71, 90.24 mph @ 1/8
10.12 @ 1000'
12.09, 114.67 @ 1/4

All runs after this went 12.1 or 12.2 at 113. The freakin car refuses to go 11's! At least I'd like to think it's the car and not the driver, but that's probaly not the case.

I shift at 6400, 4.11 gear, 26X11.5 ET Streets, Not sure of trap rpm (I don't usually look down!) On the dyno it made 371 rwhp @ 6000 with the graph still going up. I didn't notice untill I got the printout and they were strapping the next car down. I haven't made it back yet to have them spin it above 6000. It made 361 rwtq at about 47-4800 rpm. The car weighs 3479 with me in it.

It's definitley an 11 second car. Cooler weather and better 60's will get your there. Congrats! Nice looking hood on your avatar. Good luck.
