Default JWT TT update...

2nd time at the track...

Only managed to get one run in (always some god damn issue--broken axle...jetcar...timing sensors f'ed up...rain...you name it)

Anyways:

I scored a 12.80 @ 110.96. (No timeslip avail because the officials are a bunch of flatliners at Lebanon Valley Dragway). My 60' was 2.071 (OEM Potenzas @ 20 lbs psi--launch at 3000rpms). Before running I took out the spare and the jack... But, I also added a second passenger who weighs 230 lbs during this run. (I kindly asked him to get out of the car halfway down the track, but he refused...)

I don't have any 1000', 1/8 mile times...Like I said, the officials don't know how to work their new portable tree system.

I'm "guessing" that I could have run a 12.6 without the passenger...DRs should really help (next week!) so that I can launch at a higher RPM--and one day, maybe see a low 12.

My bud in his Supra BPU+ was hitting 12.3 @ 116 with 1.9 60' on DRs...

any feedback is much appreciated!

PS: i will post in car vid when it is available from my passenger...

Launch is decent for the rubber. Why do you waste a run with a passenger? Thats what the street is for man, run solo...kinda hard to really be honest about the rest of the slip/trap due to the added weight...
