RE: Depressing 1/4 time...
ORIGINAL: fishyduckyi know exactly how u feel man. i just got the mach and took it to the track and could only run a best of 13.807 at 104. i know the car is capable of way more. a couple guys said that its all in my lauch and my 2nd - 3rd shift isnt very quick at all. im going to keep practicing though and try to improve.
Add those mods to yours and srive better with experience and you will hit 12's! Sure wish I had a 4v! Mark

RE: Depressing 1/4 time...
could that you are driving an NPI...
but a full tank of gas does weigh you down. The best way to race is with like 1/4 tank.
you said it rained earlier well that means moisture on the track and probably a good level of humidity in the air... humid air doesn't befrend horsepower
