A little better then before. Got 3 new bests for me. Playing with shift points.

60 1.789 <---new best.
1/8 8.608
MPH 81.05
1/4 13.478 <----new best.
MPH 99.90

60 1.900 <---
1/8 8.906
MPH 80.02
1/4 13.799
MPH 100.31 <--- New best.


The first slip was first run of the day. Seconds slip had the potential of a new all around best but I lined up with a top fuel dragster or some shit. He had a half hour burnout routine whilst I wait at the tree. I got bored so I finished staging. As soon as I did the tree started to drop. Didnt even have time to wind up to the 45000 RPM stage limiter and got a poor 60 wich blew my 18 time. I shifted at about 6700 RPM all the way and didnt let off the gas at all the whole pass until I went through the traps. Oh well. I think Im done racing it for now. Need a turbo now that everything else is built up and ready for it. Sounds silly but its really not exciting at this level. 99-100 MPH traps really arent that great. The ET is all traction. The car just doesnt pull like my last one (R.I.P.).....yet.
