Good to meet some of you last night. Yeah, the weather was hooottt last night. I couldn't get anywhere close to my best et. The closest I got was a 13.5. My car felt like it was bogging when it shifted to 2nd and when I shifted it myself it was hitting the limiter. My last run was the 13.5 and 1-2 shift felt ok but it still hit the limiter going from 2-3 so I know it could've ran better last night. My car is right at 80k so I guess it's time for a full service tune up and then I might get a computer tune.

Peace,
Josh

Good to see everyone and meet a couple of new people. The truck is coming along. Once I get a stall I think I'm gonna have some serious traction issues off the line. If not for Bubba giving me the ticket, the night would have been perfect.
