Default Just got back from the track!!!

I just got back from the Track. Took the Mach1 down to Natural Bridge...its is only an 1/8th tho[&o].

But i ran:

8.800@81.97mph w/ .536 r/t on a .500 tree...

I was happy with my reaction time, but the car kept bogging down off the line and spining in 2nd so i know it can do better...

But what do you guys think of that time?

not to bad, its like a high 13.6 in the 1/4. Are you on stock tires. I ran one on stock tire before. I could not get better than a 2.0 with it. I went a 13.39 @104 It was my friends car. Hard to get a good 60" on the stock tires.

Thats cool. What RPMS were you launching it at? Could definatly do better if you were bogging off the line.

Excellent times. Your car and mine would be inches apart in the 1/8. I ran a 8.82@82, that was with a horrible 2.232 60 foot time. I know mine can do better also, my clutch is bad.
