I was able to take advantage of the last Friday night of racing at New England Dragway for this year. It was cool and dry. The track was slippery as, well...you know. I got about 40ft of rubber off the line in spite of trying to launch it easy, nailed 2nd and got about another 30ft or so. My 60' time still stunk at 2.12 seconds, but I finished in 13.398 @ 107.11 running the mods in my sig. with no other changes. My 2nd pass was a bog-mobile launch and I granny shifted it like a dope...2nd pass was a 13.769 @ 106.1. The car pulls really strong. Just gotta work on that launch...

Way to go Andy. Keep practicing that launch!! Did you try less rear tire pressure?

Excellent...beter than mine....ran a 13.9 again, can't find the happy medium between bogging and burning 'em up!

Thanks Guys,

I kept the tire pressure at 34psi all the way around. I know I could have done better if I had lowered it, but I figure you can't do that on the street. So I know what my car can do with no excuses.

Andy
