Default New PB at Mason Dixon Dragway in MD over the weekend!!!!

Got a new PB over the weekend - 11.83 @ 111.3 mph w/ 1.80 60 ft.

Weather was great. Temps were in the upper 50's with very low humidity. Here are a few pics of the car at the track...

Must be the way his car is geared, strong spots and dead spots.

Yea i thought so too about the trap speed. I was messing with the shift points all day. I was running anywhere between 110 mph up to 116 mph (which is my highest yet). Just so happened that the best ET came at the 111, lol. My second run of the day was a 11.96 @ 116.3 mph w/ 1.85 60 ft. Car did really good though. I had three runs in the 11.8's and ten runs in the 11.9's. As for the gears in the car, it has the factory 4r70w auto (stock T/C) and FRPP 4.10's in the rear. The tires are Hoosier DOT 245-45-17 Drag Radials on factory wheels. Best drag radials Ive ever used and fit on an 8" wheel. Car has factory suspension too.

Congrats on your PB! I was there too, was a great day and got in a lot of runs myself. My first time ever at the track, and with my stock 2010 v6 with my only mod being true duals (put my stock wheels/tires back on end of Sept) my PB was 15.204 @ 93.98 mph with a 2.270 60

Glad you could make it out. Once you make it out to the track it gets so addicting. I hate that this was the last one for the year. The weather for last saturday was unbelievably perfect.

Took a pic of the timeslip...
