Ran the 1/8th mile today its ok for first time out.
 
Today was drag race day for Nascar technical institute. Track was bad. Almost everyone was having traction isssues. I dropped my rear tires to 24. Cant wait to go to the new 1/4 mile strip here Zmax in concord,NC. Maybe now my user name title can be 13 second club not 16.

Best

RT - .151
60' - 2.250
1/8th - 8.946 @ 83.083

Yup.... I mean, if you run 16's... or even 13's in the 1/8. wow your slow :D

Its consistant with being a 13.5 - 13.7 second car... but still, you need to slap another 1/8 stretch onto that track you ran at :-P

I mean that by what im getting in the 1/8 i should be about a 13.3 in the 1/4 which would mean 13 second club
