As you can see my 60' times are killing me. WIth more practice launcing and better temps i should be able to improve. my current best from a few years ago was 14.1 @98 mph. With the high 1/4, and 60' times i am happy with the mph #s.

there was a procharged g35 there last night and after 3 runs could not beat 14.5

that made me feel a bit better.

I've been waiting a week for these times. I give you a thumbs-up for trying. Looking forward to seeing you in the 100 MPH club.

seems like n obody can get a good time at ORP lately unless you go on a thursday

cant run on street tires on thursday though

Not too shabby for ORP and the weather. My best is still a 14.37 @ 98.28 from last year with a popcharger. I haven't even been able to make it out at all this year.

Is ORP open next Tuesday, the 1st? I thought Tuesdays were closed down until the 15th. If all goes well then I'll be able to make it out on the 15th.

I plan on being there. Let me know, we'll meet up.

binder · 09-06-2009, 12:34 PM

you going to the ORP the 15th? I'm going to go to get some 1/4 mile time. Our track in terre haute is only 1/8th mile.

If all goes well at work, then I'll be there the 15th. I'll be in a 2006 Silverstone Z.

From my experience (which isn't much) Tuesdays usually don't have the greatest prep.

bummer, well it still has to be better than our small track over here in terre haute.
