R/T: .738
60': 2.015
330: 5.556
1/8: 8.397
MPH: 87.47

Second run - dropped tire pressure to 17-19 psi (analog gauge), heated tires up a bit more, higher rpm launch:

R/T: .465
60': 2.537
330: 6.064
1/8: 8.896
MPH: 87.77

Third run - tire psi same, water box soft scrub on the tires, heated tires up less than 2nd run, ~3,000rpm launch (Pro Tree) - MiDiablo drove; first time down the track since 2004 :

R/T: .589
60': 2.085
330: 5.586
1/8: 8.448
MPH: 86.09

Car's previous best was an 8.9X, and we did not utilize the intercooler (didn't have any ice) these runs. We'll have to remember to pack a cooler next time w/some ice And we were happy as hell to just get out there, drive it, have fun, and hang out w/some friends!!!!!!!!
