Default dsk888 vs Zate (TR Track Day)

Hey, it was very nice to meet ya Zate. Very nice guy! This was also my first encounter with a Mach 1, and I must give it props. IT'S GOT POTENTIAL!

It was funny, because we went 2 rounds, back to back, for my 1st and 2nd run. I thought you may have had enough after the first run, LOL...j/k! I managed to miss-shift 3rd on the first run and 4th on the second for a 12.24 @ 117.84 & 11.80 @ 117.80. (I'll leave out Zate's time out of respect...he can post it if he wants )

Here's the time slip on the 11.80 run:

60' - 1.789
330 - 4.949
1/8 - 7.562
MPH - 96.11
1000 - 9.872
1/4 - 11.804
MPH - 117.80

My car ran nowhere near it's potential, as I've trapped the same MPH on NA alone. The 1/8 mi mph looked good, but it seemed to fall on its face in 3rd and 4th gear (feeling more like NA pull.)

Anyway, it was good battling with you Zate. Hope to see ya around!

I was parked next to Al's (HybridSS) SS, to the left side of the office area. Most of my runs were made before 11:00, when there were mainly domestics. I did see you make a couple of passes later on. It definitely looks meaner in person. Good runs! By the way, your avatar & old sig doesn't do your car justice.

Take a look at the new signature.....dedicated to aharon of course...since he could let me live knowing I killed the mach1....he demanded that I immediately run him

I heard he is in denial that the COBRA is a MUSTANG, like the SKITTLE isnt a NEON type of deal
