I had a pretty good time. The track was so sticky, it felt like I was slowing down around the 1/8th mark The best I could get was a 13.48/103 so I'm still disappointed with those runs. It was consistent though. I ran 13.53, 13.52, 13.48, 13.52 w/ 2.07, 2.08 60's. I think that was the best prepped track I've ever been to. Well, at least for my car. I had 0 traction problems.

I had a blast friday night at MMP. Got my best 1/4 mile times yet. Went 12.97 at 104mph. Got to work on the 60ft times. Best I could get was a 2.00. It was nice meeting everyone and I look forward to going back.

Wicked_Hugger99 - I read that your 95 broke, you still gonna be able to make it this Friday? The air should be NICE. I was looking at the forecast, and estimate a DA in the 400 to 600 range. ( I hope ). I'm gonna be out there for sure, workin' on my 60" and seeing how much Bo's TB helped out on top end.
John, we missed ya last week. Hope to see ya there this Friday.

Really though, I was very impressed what that STS kit could do on only 5psi. Those were not bad times at all. Most people that come out to MMP never see those kinda times. Just get some sticky tires, m'kay?
FWIW, I ran four 12.8's, and one 12.9, at 108-109. I finally cut my best 60", a 1.994. I'm so glad that I finally broke into the 1.9x's.

Nice to meet you Allen. Had a great time. Track was hooking pretty good compared to others I've been to. I could only manage a 2.2x 60. When shifting from 1-2 I had to let off and get back on it to keep the tires from spinning. I guess I'll have to break down and get some tires soon. Especially if I'm gonna up the boost.
