Not sure but I think they are very strict! Idk thought the threw loco out after 3 runs!

 

That would suck, it's a long ride there to get thrown out.

That's why I like Island Dragway. A few weeks ago on a Friday
night there were a couple of cars running 11.3's(no bar) and they
let them stay.

 

Petroc55 - Where do you live in North Jersey? I used to live in Byram (Sussex county).

 

Hudson County.

Union City - 2 minutes from Hoboken.

 

Great times! 11.5x @ 122.x is movin'!

 

So PetroC55 whats next??

 

I've got a couple of things in mind.

 

Atco thursday or Friday rental what's up!!

 

It's tough for me to take off this time of year. I'm in the
heating business and this is our busy season.

....and I was off yesterday for personal reasons.

I won't be able to make this one.

 

Aww man I was hoping you would come. If u change u mind will get your car to go 11.3's forsure

 

Petro let me get that renntech intake to try tomorrow at the track!!!!

 

Someone needs to get this man a Renntech intake. We have tried desperately to get one for today but, after thinking it was in stock at Renntech, we find out that they are not ready to ship so we could not get it in time.

 

+2. On that!!

 

Honestly, I would love to help but it's pouring rain here in NJ and
I really rather not take the box off, especially in the rain.

I'm making my last trip of the season to Atco this Saturday, your more
than welcome to join me and we can do it on Saturday.

 

Leaving for Atco!!

 

Good luck!

 

+1

The weather's fantastic... Petro might get thrown out.

 

goooooood luck to you,

im going to send you a pm if you see it while at the track keep me updated.

 

Good luck

 

Didn't get thrown out, but managed a personal best of 11.504 twice.

It was a great day. the DA was between -1200 to -1500.

I met Raleighc63(Jim) and dodger63(Mike) at the track and they
seem like two really good guys who love to race. I mean Raleigh
drove 6 hours to come to Atco and dodger drove 3 hours
and didn't even run.

Jim and Mike, it was nice meeting you and hopefully we can
meet again at a track rental in the near future.

Sadly, after 16 runs I couldn't pull out an 11.4.

Here are my runs:
Run 1: 11.516 @ 122.02
Run 2: 11.551 @ 122.13
Run 3: 11.527 @ 121.88
Run 4: 11.590 @ 121.10
Run 5: 11.530 @ 121.49
Run 6: 11.579 @ 121.54
Run 7: 11.610 @ 121.03
Run 8: 11.687 @ 120.35
Run 9: 11.665 @ 120.80
Run 10: 11.549 @ 121.55
Run 11: 11.622 @ 121.62
Run 12: 11.544 @ 121.41
Run 13: 11.543 @ 121.72
Run 14: 11.540 @ 121.61
Run 15: 11.504 @ 122.10
Run 16: 11.504 @ 122.03

My 60' times ranged anywhere from 1.75 to 1.83.



If the car doesn't get any faster I may just try my hand at bracket
racing because this car is so consistent.

Also, I met Tony with a white E63 from NY that ran 11.95.

 

Very nice meeting you also very consistent.. Congrats on your pb the weather was cool but I'm sure with a bit more sun to dry the air and heat the track you would get better!

Can't belive they closed early I was excited to see if my car could hook on street tires.. I'm game to come back next Saturday if weather holds up.. If you go I'd like you to try my mcd intake see if that helps!!!

 

Sounds good but it may have to be next Sunday instead.

Just found out can't make it Saturday.

 

Great runs, Mike! Congrats on the new PB.

Looks like your car may have been hot for runs 8 and 9, but I'm really impressed with how consistent your car is, like you said.

There's room for improvement in the 60' time. I hope you know I'm not saying that like an armchair racer. No way. I'm just saying that as you further dial in that part of the race, you will definitely reach 11.4 or better.

Great job.

 

nice meeting you today mike , Will upload the videos from today by tomorrow and send you the one of your C vs my car .

Of course Mikes car won !!!

 

That Subie had a ridiculous launch. If you saw his trap speed, it was only 105.9mph.
