Are you powershifting James?

If not, that will definitely help you get closer to 10s.

Yes I was powershifting. I hit 5 11.3's before finally getting my 11.2. This may be due to the fact that the temp went down a little and the weight of the gas as well. My last and best runs were with less than a 1/4 tank.

Nice, powershifting helps quite a bit.

Im wondering if they will give me trouble too. Id really like to at least spray a 100 shot but that should put me in the 10s, I can see if I was a .10 or .20 under but if im in the 10s im afraid they will kick me off the track and my $60 goes down the drain.

They usually give you a warning. You just tell them your not gonna spray anymore and then go all out. A 10 second slip is worth the $60 to me

...a 10.9 slip would be nice but if im kicked out before I can make it a 10.7 or only get one run in after ive been waiting all this time to race it would suck. Ill just have to see if I have time to install the n20.

What kinda tires are you gonna run? A 28 inch slick would probably be the best.

Are you gonna spray out of the hole?

Due to my spending most of my $$$ on the shortblock I was unable to buy slicks, so ill most likely be on my nittos

Anyone have some 26" or 28" ET Streets they want to lend or rent me?

If you are on your nittos don't get your hopes up. Those tires suck at the track.
Definitely see if you can borrow some tires from someone.
