I didn't see anyone running faster then 12's with 60' times of 1.6 or quicker posting how good the track was or that they got there new best time .... ??

Scott ; you do a great job with this event ... I just didn't understand what you were looking for .. I guess now I do ... no problem ..... Like I said ... I stand corrected

Kenny
I guess I was the only one that ran a new best then. For me the track hooked. I got my best 60ft on my BFG's. See sig for ET. I had no complaints. 5500rpm dumps on radials? Where do I sign! Thanks again Scott. -Mark

Congradulations on your new time ..... That's AWESOME !! .... But; Like I said 1.6 or faster ....
I always get 1.64 - 1.67 60's and I just jetted up going for a 12.1 .... best 60' was a 1.9 ....... still ran 12.6 .... so If I could have hooked with a 1.64 or even a 1.59 .. I would have gotten my 12.1..
looking at others posts of time .. It seems all the track could handle was 1.7's or slower ....
Congradulations on your new time ... I know you're excited ... I know I was when I got my 12.5 ... was hopping to fell that again with the new setup ...... I'll have to wait till next time ....

But the 1.7's were on drag radials not slicks. If I had slicks I could of easily had high 1.5's.

Derek- Is the guy with the yellow mustang is named Mike right? I think that's the guy I bought pro stars from awhile back. Real nice guy. His car is sick. -Mark

You're correct Mark, Mike it is. He's a real laid back type of guy.
We're doing a few more things to the car before he starts to lean on the N2O anymore (only a 150 shot right now), Anderson power pipe, bigger TB and MAF, getting some Kooks 1 3/4 headers ordered up soon. Should get it into the 10.6x range, which would make both of us very happy.

He was running ET Streets at the last track day.
