Dodger - 10.81@132 (Yet another record ET, I do believe)
Bukasa - 11.8x spinning on street tires
Luis - 11.1 (heat soak is a b1tch)
Andy - MHP SL65 - 11.2x@128
Racehorse - CL65 - 11.34@125.9 on street tires

Ahmad didn't show.

CONGRATS MIKE!

Sucks you broke down Clayton, specially after those strong Numbers but **** happens for a reason. Tx for posting updates

I wish my issues were heat soak related, but they were not.

All my runs 11.11 being the slowest were very close to ambient temps, i was letting off in the back end because of some issues my car seems to have and was still cutting 11.01s.. Great day at the track and IMO not hot at all..My car ran strong even on the type of DA but im not willing to trade a tenth or two for another engine

I was long gone and at toys R' us when Mike texted me his 10.78 pass Big Kudos to him..I know for a fact That record is not going to be touched for a while, specially after we do another ATCO rental on some negative DA ..Right Mike

BTs Car and Rocket both have really strong cars only they had to battle heatsoaking since they are running stock cooling systems which im sure they'll sort out soon..

Stay thirsty my friends..

Excellent traps and ETs for the DA you ran in. Keep it up out East!

time slips

Here are my best 3 from my first day at the track. All in all I don't think I have anything to complain about. I understand my 60 ft times need help, and could certainly get better with drag radials. Any other suggestions? I think the MPH for 1/8 and 1/4 are strong enough for better times or is that wishful thinking? It has a tune, bmc filters, cm-30 and supplemental HE car.

Your traps are really strong. I think you should be really close to a 10s run with drag radials.

Hey it was great meeting you at the track and watching your car run. For not having DRs you were hooking! Great job pedaling that monster! I ended up with a dismal 1.79 60' on my best pass on 18" Nittos

I'm dying for some IC upgrades, my car was heatsoaked after 1-2 passes, very frustrating watching the 63 guys make 8+ passes in a row lol.

I forgot to ask you what tune you're running?

Congrats again and beautiful clean car!

No, I didn't head to MIR this time out. I had to go into work on Friday.

I don't think I would have been able to help you better that 1.8 60' on stock tires. I think the best I ever cut on stock tires was a 1.9X 60'. Nice work!
