Default runs from Sacramento today

No records or best anything today. The car ran good considering 98-102 temps. I was a couple MPH off, but not too bad for that heat. The track was not well prepped or maintained. I was running BFG DR's and they would not hook off the line. Can you believe they charged $100 for TnT and $45 for each spectator because of an event this weekend. All that and they only spray a little water for the burnout. We're heading for home tomorrow, and should roll in Sunday night. Maybe back out to Bremerton in a week or 2. See ya!

60 1.939
1/8 7.422
MPH 101.071
1/4 11.213
MPH 131.066

60 2.137
1/8 7.523
MPH 101.947
1/4 11.306
MPH 131.841

Nice Chris, for the heat. yes the traps are to kill for. I got a 103mph in the 1/8 today, a new best, but had to abort the run before hitting 4th.

yep came on back to some cooler weather and set some new bests. see ya when ya get here. The BFG's will work better on a cooler track, they get slippery when that hot.

Nice MPH. That was about the speed I ran my 10.0's at. In the heat, bad track. Wait until you get to a good track

Are you running still stock longblock? If so even more impressive.

$100 for TnT. Man!! I thought $25 was more than enough. Thank God I race in South Dakota

10.ohs @ 131 yeah I wish! I need to get some real tires and maybe have a chance at mid 10's. I dunno which is more wacky, the $100 fee or me for paying it.

Yes the LS6 longblock is all stock. I've never even been into it except to replace some loose cam bolts. I think it may be good for 135mph in the right conditions.

Hey Robert, it sounds like your setup is coming together nicely. Looking forward to another Bremerton outing. I'm going to look into a Drag Pack or something, but may have to wait for next spring...

Bremerton on the 15th looks like the next... Damn, I sure hope I can get a full run in by the end of the year, opportunities are dwindling. Yea, drag pack and some slicks are def in my plans, but like you will likely have to wait till next year.
Might be heading to PR Wed?
