i got 3 runs in tonight, first one was a throwaway run, the 2nd a 12.8 (actually bogged off the line and messed up on 2-3 shift) theres a story behind that one. to make it short, my tcs switch panel is disconnected. on launch, it fell out and onto my shift boot area, and it made for a hard time shifting, but i still reeled the guy in. 3rd run, 12.5 @ 112 2.0 60' again, spinning like a mofo. dunno if it was me or the track that was f'd up. i launched it only at 3000-3500 and it was spinning. oooo and i dont have 2nd gear anymore... (this actually happened on the street. its popped out of 2nd gear before a few times at low rpm shifting but was fine at wot. and it pops out bad and grinds now. damn it to hell anyway

btw that last race was super close, it was vs a 4th gen H/C, bolt on camaro he got me by a measly .068 seconds it was side by side the whole time! i ran a faster time, but he had a lil better R/T and a tiny bit more traction.

If 1 tenth down low =2 tenths up top, i should be seeing 12.1-12.2 with a 1.8 60' time
