He ran on a cool low humidity night and then ran on a very hot and humid day. That explains it all right there... Also in 2 differnt states.

VMP this year is MUCH quicker then last year. As far as how well it is hooking.

I was able to run a 7.9 1/8th mile @ 99.4mph on my regular street tires w/ a 2.1 60ft. So the track is deffinaly nice, from my point of view.

(I didnt run it out to the 1/4 because I was having blow by problems from a burnt piston, runnin 12.7 @ 124.8 coasting and hitting the brakes trying to get off the track cuz i was smoken bad )

I know I don't belong here.

I went and ran my hatch. I met alot of cool people there.

That white hatch with the primer fender was very quick, and the dude was very cool to talk to. Gave me alot of tips for when I finally boost my car.

My buddy couldn't break his 100mph traps, all night he got 99.6, 99.7, 99.4.. etc. The other night it was much colder and the humidity was alot less and he was getting 104/103s all night.

I'll be out there again in my car, hopefully I don't break any motor mounts. How does a torqueless car break two motor mounts...

sounds like everybody was having shitty trap speeds that night. I need to get my car out on the track with the new turbo.
