My best time of the day was a 13.3@105 1.93 60'. The right lane was killing me all day so I switched lanes and dropped 2 tenths instantly. I think I could have pulled a 1.8 if I would have run in the left lane more.

Weird.....I always went faster in the right lane at Capital. AJ it did seem like your car running stronger later today than I have ever seen it at Capital. That 15mph headwind and temps at almost 60 were going against you guys though.

For some reason when I start up the car, I shoot a little bit of white smoke out. Great!

Awww man, wish I'd seen this thread sooner, I got there around 2 and left at 3:30 'cause I had to meet the family for dinner at 4:30 lol.

Got two runs in, saw some other Z's running also and spoke to one guy with a G35. Who was in the Orange Z with the carbon fiber?

Wish I had gotten there earlier to get more runs in. I might go to MIR next Sunday though since I have nothing going on as of yet...

I did run a 13.78 at 98mph though. The gearing is killing me in the HR. I didn't shift to fourth and hit the rev limit. I guess I actually did better than my first run (13.8 @ 102), and then because I thought I was doing worse didn't shift into 4th and screwed it up????

I might go to cecil next weekend I hear there was only 30 cars there for their TnT saturday.

If you are breaking 100 mph for trap speed, then your run isn't exactly slow.....

Hmm, maybe I should get in the left lane next time? Both my runs were in the right lane.
