Best 60ft i ran with the 3.5 FD was 1.74 but i couldn't get into 3rd, it seems the harder i launch sometimes the worse the shifting is. Its nice not to have to shift to 5th to pass the 1/4 mile.

Let's here more about the times everyone ran...I wish I would've gone but everyone bailed from the Sac area so I ended up stayin local. Our poorly prepped tracked (Wednesdays) allowed the usual sh*tty 2.1 60ft and 13.5-13.6

Yeah, I know I can turn a low 13 with the right launch...it just didn't happen last night. There were two other Z's there, one with an intake that ran 14.2-14.3 and one with the sam mods as me (i/h/e, cats, plenum spacer) that ran a 14.0-14.3 I think. We should check out those domestics on Fri night.

Nice shot Walt, even got me with my cap on ***-backwards!

Here are the pictures I took last night, it was fun! Walt was in rare form...he actually got eliminated in the first round. ANd that NEVER happens.
It was weird, almost all of us broke-out in the first round. Even Mark with the famous tercel had bad luck.
We got 3-4 practice runs in before elims, but it went by too quickly.

Here is the photo album:

It was nice meeting the new folks and tearin' it up on the freeways.
Enjoy!

Nice pics Alvin. I like th antenna shot? Angela took the pic of you with her cell phone. I get this email this morning with her phone number and I'm thinking wtf since it was captioned
"swinger". It was that pic of you. Good timing with the hat."

Giri and Alvin, great pics. Thanks for posting. Alvin, special thanks for that money shot of my brakes. I've been sitting here at work touching myself to that pic for the last five minutes. my coworkers are scared.

I was smoked the next day when i had to get up at five to catch a flight to colorado. This palce sucks. I already miss my car.
