Mach at the track

Just because a track has a turnout doesn't tell anything about the track prep or the people who run it. Just means there isn't any other track to go to in the area apparently in your case. So again, not driving to run at a shitty 1/4 track or a 1/8 track in my street car. And as I said, I'll gladly make it worth your while if you come out this way. Your choice, I don't care, but if you're going to call me out be ready to follow up on it. Have a good night.

As I said, you're welcome to try.

And the prep there is better than any other track I have ever been to. So that might could help you out. Still a 2 hour drive for me.

Indeed. Looks like some serious suspension/traction issues, that 60' is appalling!
MPH shows that its not really a 13 second car and should be much quicker, but trap is still real low for the power its making. Could be shifting too early.
I'm sure a few more trips to the track to practice different techniques,and dialing it in with better tires will cut a full second off that time without touching anything else.

I've told Heater that if he wants to drive my car at an event we're at, as long as he helps trailer it back if it breaks, he can drive it. 19s, Full weight (- tire and jack + stereo) + 350 pounds, shocks set at almost full stiff in rear, 4 from full soft in front, street tires, and second time running this/any car at the track ever, I am fine with my results. I've never specified that I can drive at the track, and don't claim to be able to. I don't care what other cars run.
I almost asked Eric to drive it, Heater. He cut a 1.5/1.4x 60' in the Cobra!

Yeah i mean given that he has a heavy *** T/A and doesn't look like the lightest guy either or making over 4xxwhp it isn't that bad actually. Hopefully im right cause that MPH is bolt on territory. But its not the first time ive seen a small cam car trap a shitty MPH before, its pretty common actually.
