Should be good air tonight, and I need to blow off some steam. Should be new best times tonight.

It was cold out for sure and 95% of the cars were street cars. Traction was a big issue.

ran 12.6's @ 110mph and that was launching @ idle. Any higher and I spun off the line bad. Half the runs were not worth mentioning.. spun so bad one run, I just cruised down the track.

The car has a 12.4 in it, not bad for only gears and a pulley.

Congrats on the new best. I saw you drive down the return lane a few times and was like....I think I know who that is lol. Traction did suck bigtime. The only run I didn't spin in was on my third run when they let us run in the groove.

The motor got so cold, it wasn't warm enough during the burnout and stalled. (TB Bypass) LS1 motors like to be warm and cold air for sure. ( I get better times with a warm motor)
