Well I wasnt quite as happy as I thought I would be this race but I did well. I figure you guys wouldnt believe these times out of a bolt on so I'll go to Walmart tomorrow and get it on CD. LOL Anyways... without further ado...



REACTION.....07501
60FT.....1.8971
330FT.....5.4308
1/8ET.....8.3921
1/8MPH.....83.22
1/4ET.....13.0285
1/4MPH.....104.87

I tried to use up all my gas on the way there but still had a quarter tank to race on. If I was on "E" like I usually always am I would have broke a 12. Im happy with the 13.02 though. Im gonna go to Ennis or San An sooner or later and maybe run a 12.8. I'll post the time slip tomorrow evening.
There ya go JD, finally gettin some better times
Are you powershifting too?

Jebus Christ dude how you get a 105 mph trap ? I don't think you realize just how good of a track you must have... 1.8 60's on new Nitto's and super high trap speed for just bolt-ons... congrats dude

He's getting some of that good negative DA air for sure. JD's in Texas isn't he? I'd like to see a DA correction on that pass. My bests were ran at right around 0 DA , which is about as good as it gets around here

my best was done around -300 DA, this weekend the DA will be -1000

Hmmm... its coming around now at JD's track it was, at 9pm, 41*, 70% humidity, 30.31 bar, 625 feet? = -800 DA ... so yea thats good weather JD's doin real well to get that 60' outta that cold of weather.

So, -800 DA right now compared to an average day over there of 94* (holy ****!) = 3376 DA... thats a 4000 DA difference = .7 tenths off the e.t. and 5 mph trap speed..... WOW, no wonder your times blew nuts in the summer JD - but your makin up for it now buddy Just like me!

That's why, where you race is as important as what you race. You'll see incredible times ran by folks with few mods in the NorthEast , Texas , and other places that run all winter. Tracks around here close in mid-November, plus the rainy season starts about mid-October. Usually by the time the cool air hits us , it's raining. I'm depressed, today is a negative DA day here with bright sunshine and not a track open

Im gonna see 12's before we know it LOL. Im powershifting like there is no tomorrow. Just before I went to the track last night, I checked the DA and it was only suppose to be like 300. I dont know what it got to. The track elevation is 593 ft. My first run was a 13.22, then a 13.02 and the last best run was a 13.07. Then I let the car cool down and let the tire pressure out and I went back out after an hour and the track got SOOO hard. I couldnt get any traction for ****. Im gonna head back there as soon as Christmas is over. We are expecting snow here on Friday... so I dont think they are gonna run.

Yeap... it comes and goes here also. Last year (while I was in Iraq) they shut the post down for a solid week because it snowed so bad. I have no means of transportation till it all metls so I guess I will be starving. LOL
