Good run! Did they use a blacktop heater at the track? I imagine the rain throughout the day would have made the surface rather cold. Any traction problems launching/shifting? And out of curiosity, what rpm were you shifting at?

Nice job man, I think we may have ran against each other that night.I have a redfire s197. It wasvery dead. I got there when the gates opened and got in 23 runs!You shoulddef give a thought about getting a CAI for your next mod, unless you plan on going force induction in the near future .
yup that was me.... ultimatelymy plans are to get underdrive pulleys, JLT II CAI, and longtubes. then head up to vmp to get it dyno tuned

I wasn't there right at opening so i don't know if they heated the track... typically they spry the track with trackbite before they start racing... I was launching at about 3000rpm, shifting at about 6100-6200rpm and riding 3rd through the traps righ b4 it hits the rev limiter

Very respectable. IMHO, anything 12.99 and quicker is pretty darn good.

Just out of curiosity, why did you run on the 87 tune? Very impressive ETs with your mods btw!
