To start off, I'm not a big poster on the forum but do plenty of browsing here. Well I went back down to Cecil County Dragway in MD tonight for their first Wednesday street racing of the season. There was a small to medium sized crowd so I got a decent number of runs in. Actually 11 runs in total before they cut my night short and wouldn't let me run anymore because I do not have a helmet. Air temps were in the low 40s which seemed perfect for good times.

For the record my 07 is still 100% stock down to the tire. My TurboXS exhaust will be going on this weekend or next week sometime. I did get my slave cylinder recall done since the last track outing.

At my previous track visits, I have never did any sort of burnout or "tire cleaning" spinning. I recently watched VeeTec's video of his drag run with his 2 step burnout for us Base model guys. I really like his theory and decided to put it to use...resulted in many 2.0xx 60' times, much better than my previous best of 2.227 in my 13.465 run.

Anyway, I have a new PB for time and trap speed.

Fastest trap was 107.94 mph!!! Thats getting close to 108 mph territory.

Again, I'm still all stock. Car was running strong and I was finally getting my technique right. Launch rpms were in the 2500-3000 range.

13.150 @ 107.62 with a 2.026 60'

nice, congrats.

 

damn, that's pretty quick!

 

Wow, awesome job!

 

wow, very impressive!!

 

stillen/hks owners are trembling in fear, rofl.

 

Great job Pat!!!!!!!!!!

I'm positive someone will run a 12.9 stock, at least.

Not sure when I will get back to the track though.

Almost 108 mph, that's just crazy!

 

Well done... Veetec didn't you have a 105mph trap on your 13.1 pass?? Just wondering where the 2mph was from on his runs... more agressive launch better air? With a 1.9 60ft it does look like a 12.9 is within reach.... most impressive guys!

 

I like the staging pad preparation at Cecil County. The crew does a good job especially during competition on Sundays.

Regardless, damn good driving!

 

Cecil County Dragway is the best! Many records set at that track.

 

wow good job man
HR FTW

 

good job!, now change your signature!

 

congrats!!!!

 

Congrats on the great time. Keep it up and break the 12's

Good driving, Cecil is one of my favorite tracks. Im sure the DA was great yesterday.

 

I trapped 105.7 on my 13.1 pass, but it was at a slower track.

I trapped over 107, back when I had clutch issues, and as a result, I only ran 13.2, launching easy. If I could have launched like I can now, I would have run a couple of tenths quicker.

Pat's trap is fast enough for a 12.9-13.0, with a 1.9 60'. You will probably see 108+ traps eventually, during great weather.

 

Great driving.. I'm very impressed.

 

nice time!!!!!

 

Pat's the man!

 

SLICKS!!

and imagine the times you could be getting.
