Nick, your trap speeds should be higher than that. you've got a high 11 second car.

Nice meeting you all.

No traction on my stock Craptenzas that I didn't bother to deflate but had fun nonetheless.

Best Time - 13.30
Best Trap - 109.9

Need major tuning and grippier tires to catch up to that Z06. Hmm maybe my Z is a dyno queen after all.

Yea, nice meeting you too, sorry for that little wrong turn on the way home. I swear, we totally knew the right way the whole time!

Good times overall I think.

I pulled a new best. Then i swapped out nicks MAF but that didnt do anything at all I was hoping that would give the car some more power, but i guess not.

RT - .084
60' - 2.106
330' - 5.852
660' - 8.887 @ 81.00
1000' - 11.481
1320' - 13.683 @ 102.42

had kind of a rough night tonight, i need a shift light really bad. i either shift too soon or too late like no other. then after the 3rd or 4th run my clutch started slipping. but i had a good time tonight. cobra4b was kicking some ass on street tires

new mods, new times on the 22nd

I would have expected your trap speed to be higher. What tires were you using? How did everyone else run btw?

That was a blast... Nick we'll have to run 'em when you get some new tires

I set a new personal best 12.156 @ 116.78

60' 1.905
330 5.456
1/8 7.932
MPH 92.49
1000 10.221
1/4 12.156
MPH 116.78

I was running on Kumho Ecsta MX steret tires (my VIR wheels/tires) @ 25 psi rear and 40 psi front. Did a burnout until I could see smoke then launched anywhere from 2500 to 3000 rpms w/ a little clutch slip and a semi-granny shift into 2nd gear to prevent excess wheel hop.

My most fun race of the night was against a pullied down '03 cobra. I've met the guy a few tiems before at the strip, but he was alway stock and running low 13's. I asked him if he'd finally gotten smart and pullied the car. He had and was maknig 450 at the wheels and running on DR's. I can't find the time slip... shit.

oh well, I tree'd him w/ a .052 rt to his .1xx but he ran a 1.90 60' to my 1.97 so we were dead even. Then we were basicaly side by side screamin' the whole way down the track, we kept on looking over at each other, dead even. I pulled about 1/2 a car by the end and won the race. It was a 12.25 @ 116.xx to his 12.31 @ 114.xx. He loved it... said it was the best drag he'd had and was going home.

All in all fun night... Congrats to Brock (XCELR8) for pulling his panties out of a wad and running a 13.3 @ 104 in his stock Mach 1.

No new PB, but pulled a half decent time for what little power my car is making.

60' 1.91
1/8 8.7
MPH 79.0
1000 11.4
1/4 13.62
MPH 99.4

My other best run my ET was almost the exact same but I beat a supercharged 99+ cobra.
Put a car and a half on him on the launch, then I have no idea how he didnt catch up on the top end. Must suck to spin halfway down the track. Of course he trapped about 11 MPH better than me. haha.

yea my traps were definitely low. like i said, on top of it only being my second time to the track ever, the clutch was slipping all night and somewhere along the line something on the car got torn up. it's running like ass now.


but i still had a good time. i was running on some extremely bald dry rotted nittos and cooper cobra all-weathers up front. full weight except for a backseat
