If it helps, the mods in my sig got me solidly and consistently into the 12s.

+1 my work schedule stinks but us Central FL people should get a distribution list together so events and track days would be easier to plan.

Thanks,

(I would volunteer but I am currently at work and cant use work email.)

I can't say it enough, but Im proud of my times for my first outting with this car. I have Justins tune on it. It was just a mail order so it hasn't been dyno tuned. I'm pretty sure if he actually had the car it could be tweeked a little more.

I was trying to launch around 4000 but I was getting nervous and feathering the clutch to much. Which is why I think I was only getting 1.9's.

I'm from Palm Bay, so I don't go that often. Its about an hour away. I might see if I can go Wednesday. Its suppose to be low 50's. That will help out ALOT.

Well break is over, gotta get back to work. Keep the feedback coming. Thanks everyone

whats up central fl. guys,
I should be at the track this wed as long as it doesn't rain, my brother wants to go since he finally got his new bmw 335 after totalling his last one two monthes ago.We can all take turns wooping up on his 50 thousand dollar car (13.9 was his best with the last 335)!

Pignpro- since my brother had wrecked his car, I was just going by myself. It's no big deal, I just go around and meet people and talk cars. What is the casselberry meets? I live right in dt orlando so I'm centrally located to about everything around here. the track website is www. speedworlddragway .com, it will have directions and a schedule of all the event dates.

MustangGT- With your numbers your car should def be capable of getting a 12s slip, the biggest thing though is practice. I'm no expert driver, I've only had right under 40 passes at the track, but all of those passes have come in the last 2 1/2 monthes. That consistency has really allowed me to learn my cars capabilities and get some great 60' times. I'll go to the track on either fridays or wed (wed are usually less crowded), just depends on my schedule.

Redfire- you should def get some improvements! I forsee at least a 13.20.

Hope to see all the cent. fl guys there soon!
