No new best for me. I didn't feel like swapping over to the track tires this AM so I ran on the street tires. Big Mistake!!! Best pass was a 12.6X @ 113.9. Better luck next year!!!

Yeah... Me too. I know I coulda ripped off a 11.6 or 7 in this weather, but gotta make that cheese so I can dip even lower next season.

I got off work around 2:30ish, and saw someone heading out with a Black Camaro on a trailer, but I couldnt get one quick enough, and didnt feel like going all the way up there for only a few passes. Besides I gotta be up all early tomorrow too...

But anyway... I dont know how long you had yours together but I think someone owes you a new torque arm.... That **** looks like the weld gave out!

Larry was running lean on the bottle, so no good passes out of him on the bottle.

I got booted at the end of the day for going too fast with no safety gear. I did get by once when I ran a little too fast.
Are you running the 80 with a brake?

He didn't know when to lay off the gas. He did 3 complete 360s.

I hit a new personal best today: 12.903 @ 111.52

I could've done better with my 60', but bald street tires are not the best for cold weather. I'll have some new ones on by spring.

Thanks! Hopefully, I'll have it running as sick as it looks by the Spring.
