Default New Personal Best!!!!!

Hey everyone, me and some friends rented out Milan Dragway tonight.
Alot of fun with a wide variety of cars.

The track was not prepped at all. Many people had a hard time getting under 2.0 60 ft.

Im excited because I set my personal best tonight.
My last time was a 14.1@99mph.

I know that there is probably more in the car, but I don't know about my driving. Im not the greatest.

These are my best 4 for the night out of about 15.









Hopefully some of you guys could give me some advice that may prove helpfull.

I cant really complain. I wanted to run a 13.5 and I did. I guess I just have to work on 60ft now.

Also, I killed my clutch tonight.

So it looks like JWT clutch and fly-wheel for next spring :-)

I was shocked at the times that other cars ran.

Everything there ran much slower than I had expected.

Nice time Mike. Wish I could have made it out there to see the runs.

What are the differences between Tuesday's runs and your 14sec+ original runs in terms of parts, weather conditions and track experience?
