I don't believe it was that cool of a day. Best run was at 5:53 on April 7th, but I think atco's clock was wrong on the print-out....might have been 6:53 if that makes any difference. If anything, i'll probably be stuck in the 12.5s since the clutch has a little more wear on it and seems to make me trap less and less each visit to the track.

I ran the 12.37 the last time i went, I had skinnes on that i borrowed from tim. Before that i ran with 16/254 in the front and the mt et streets and ran a best of 12.409. I stay pretty consistent around 12.45 and with the z06 wheels on the front prob more like 12.5s

looks like u ran that in -1000 or better DA

i ran my 12.48 @ 112 on a 1.90 60' in -700DA

your car, vin's and mine are all pretty close (when u guys do sticky tires and i do street tires) so it should make for some fun races

don't worry...my car will be 12.4's even if the DA is 1000+...I figured out a new launch technique that should help me pick up a tenth or two....

Edit: just called and placed my order for a monster stage 3 clutch, so I wont care if I roast the clutch on Friday

im still learning how to launch the z28, id like to see a couple 1.8 60's with it. but that will all depend on how the track hooks for me. if the DA is the same as last friday, i should be in the 12.4-12.5 range on a 1.8 something 60'
