Well after a 12 hour day of racing! I'm home, and I had an awesome time!!
After 9 runs, Air pressure changes, launch changes, and just practice, here is my best run:
R/T 0.495
60ft 2.087
330ft 5.585
1/8 8.404
MPH 88.88
1000ft 10.807
1/4 12.822
MPH 112.330
I FINALLY GOT INTO THE 12'S!! That run was my last run of the day. I had made 8 runs previous, and had 4 in the 13.20's so i had said, well i guess thats all i can get. but, i still had a half our left of track time so.. one more run. and BAM 12's! I was like HELL YESS! LoL it took a while, but i finally got there! My biggest problem all day was i could not get a good burnout. I just couldn't get the tires hot enough to launch hard. So i did the best burnout i could with the tires at 11psi, still not enough smoke, but i launched it at about 1500 RPM, and gave it all she had. Shifted at 5500 RPM, hit EVERY shift perfectly via my shiftlight, and the car ran great. It ran great all day. I can't ask for anymore, from a 128,000 mile car, and my dad, my painter, and myself have done 99% of the work on her. It's awesome. LoL
So, Gotta order a linelock , must get a smokey burnout! LoL, i just couldn't get them to go up in smoke.
My previous best was a 13.94, and after the runs today, i've only made 12 runs down the track, ever.
