15.3@86ish

I got a great launch, but it probably would have been quite a bit better had I not somehow missed 4th gear. My average trap speed on my other runs with a shit launch was about 90mph in 4th.


Definately room for driver improvement. Also need to work on reducing the effects of heat soak on the intercooler. CO2 and that TC intercooler should do the trick.

12.6@108 with a 1.81 60 ft on nitto drags. 93 LX Convt - Saleen body kit.

I tried launching harder on later runs and didn't fare as well but my MPH went up. Also a ton of black smoot on my tensioner so I may be getting a little belt slippage.

I made 16 runs!!!!

My best run came on my 15th pass, 13.67 @ 104.7 with a 2.197 60' on Nitto street tires. This was my best run in this type of weather. (my 13.35 was last month on a sat morning ~40 degrees with a stiff wind behind the car).

I was the black 01 cobra.

LOL! You only snubbed me a half dozen times!
Once as I was driving by I waved over the car.. but I gave ya that one since you probably couldn't see me through the tinting.
And then we stood not less than 10 ft from ya for a half hour or so... and yep... Lionel was there.
