New best 60' and MPH, no new ETs :(
I was mainly working on my 60's last night at Atco. First few runs, I was cutting high 1.8s. Then on the last run, I found the sweet spot with the clutch release and cut a 1.846. Of course, I had to miss 2nd AND 4th and ended up running a 14.4 @ 95. If I had nailed those shifts, it would have netted me a 13.68 at least. Oh well, I'll be back out there next Tues, maybe I'll try and find more weight to remove.

Did ya weigh the car? Hmmm, I don't think Atco has a scale, am I right?
What was the mph?

Great job on that 60', but why don't you tell everyone about your new favorite track worker....

No scale at Atco. The MPH was 99.16 which is up from 99.12.

There was a cone on the track right where you drive through the water, and it forced you to drive *very* close to the wall while spinning in the water. Craig got out to move the cone, and the track worker flipped out on him (as Liz quoted).

Nah, just laugh in his face, get back in the car, get your right rear tire over the cone and kick it. Then if he gets pissed, ask him why you're paying him if he isn't going to do his job  . Then in a Donald Trump voice tell him he's fired.

We're almost there. A little more weight and good air, and I'll be joining the 100mph club with a stock 3800.

Nice 60' dude, that car is movin'. I just don't think the air was there (early on at least) for a new best (I got one but I had other changes to my set up) last night...Friday might be cooler out though. 
Atco does have a scale but it's rarely open for use.
