Default Just got back from Rock Falls Raceway...

Hey guys,

It's been two years, a Centerforce Clutch, LTs, X-pipe, and a five lug conversion since I've been at the track but just got back yesturday from running.

I was cutting really good lights all day, a best of .020.

I was on different street tires this time, some 275/40/17 Cooper Zeons @ 18PSI.

They actually hooked up decent, yielding a best 60 FT of 1.8.

It was second gear where they let loose most of the time.

It was overall consistent at 12.5s at 111.6 with the best being a 12.52 @ 111.6. It did dip into 112MPH at 12.55.

And this was all after driving 160 miles to get to the track. I didn't touch the timing even though I had a light with me. Next time I go to the track I want do it with radials and an open exhaust. I got into the second round of eliminations. I'm just glad the car didn't get slower since the stroer was put in two years ago.

Best part is I have some videos!

They pretty crappy since it was with one of those Fl!p cameras that I got free with my Dell laptop, and the girlfriends vid taking skills weren't the best...but here'e the links! I'll post some pictures up too since the ones taken with my camera were crappy and hopefully the ones on hers were better.
