the A&M sports car club hit up the 1/8 track. low turn out, but lots of runs. my times improved over last october and the 1/4 track in january.



rxn: 0.665

60': 2.312

300': 6.093



1/8 mile: 9.101

mph: 82.6



my 60' stunk. if i could have improved that, i might be able to get into the 8.9's. i was also shifting a little early (at 6750 instead of 7500).



i improved my strategy and launches, but the IC started getting hot and my times jumped to 9.35 or so. i should have opened my hood and let my engine cool for like 15 min or so.



either way, those times put me well into the 13.8's - 13.9's for 1/4, considering my 1/8 time in january was 9.17 sec at 81 mph, resulting in a 1/4 time of 14.03 at 102.0 mph.



i'm happy, mbc works well, and i killed a number of v8's.



only things faster: jeff's old school bullitt mustang, running 8.6 sec, and a ls1 trans am running 8.8 sec.

 

i'll get pics up when i get my camera from my car

 

Yeah that 60 foot could use some help.



iirc i couldnt get under 2.1 on poopy street tires..



I think its important to let the car cool down before you run again. Hot air intake temps are the devil!
