Thumbs up Ran a Few more 13.0's All Motor....

Still have not broken into the 12's But atleast im still getting close

TyWinter and I went over to Mason Dixon Dragway today and had a great time. He improved his time ( first time on slicks ) and i almost improved mine.

Mason Dixon is 550 feet above sea lvl.. I checked the Density Altitude for today and it was like running at 1421 feet above sea lvl. We had a temp of 71 degrees.

Here are the timeslips

Your right, I do But i dont think about it as much as i use to. I understand alot more now when it comes to launching on slicks.

Its weird, i trapped a higher trap at mason dixon with warmer temps and further above sea lvl (106 vs 105 ) When i ran at Capital it was around 50 out and that track is 20 feet above sea lvl. Maybe im just comfortable at Mason Dixon.

So your slicks made it to a forth car now and still plenty of rubber left on them.

A 106 tap speed is awesome. I think some gears and a UTEC is a need for this winters project. You have put together a very nice car.

Any plans for a set of cams, or any other N/A mods perhaps!

I know how expensive some of the new Cosworth stuff is gonna be, but it may be worth it.

Good driving Todd-106mph trap consistent is awesome. You need that elusive NA 60ft (1.7) to hit that 12.9! Id like to go to a track this week! My car is running STRONG in this weather....btw-I didnt watch that UFC Saturday, I woke up at 6am both Saturday and Sunday I took a MSF course and got my license today-so no partying/UFC this time....

Thanks for the free rubber Ace. It's like driving a new car. I can't wait to get used to running on slicks...I think it gives me alot more room for improvment.

let me know if you want to go to the track any time soon. My car is running strong as well, I'm going for the 113 mph traps and hopefully the 12.7 E.T's.
