Shattered my old personal best tonight!

previous best was 12.83@ 110.71mph on a 2.09 60'

it started out crappy for me, i missed two shifts in the z28. im so used to the clutch, clutch pedal and trans on the t/a and forgot that i wasnt driving the t/a lol.. 13.38@ 106 on a 2.1 60' ew

2nd run got my crap together a lil bit, 12.76@ 112.71 mph on a 2.05 60'

3rd and final run


60' 1.90

1/8th 8.0 @ 88.88mph

1/4 12.48 @ 112.43mph

street tires of course

i havent done anything to the car since the last time i ran the car

i think theres 12.30's in it with a 1.85 60' lol

nice ron. I'm gonna have to head down to atco on street tires to see how bad you beat me up. I haven't broken 12's on street tires so it'd be fun.

thanks all! it was great to see a decent turnout of njfboa folk last night. the only thing i changed since the last time was my launch and maybe shifted a lil faster. and to anyone who might want me to drive their car, it would take me more than a few passes to get the feel for it. Id be happier watching you improve each time instead me driving it for you. imean sure itd be fun to drive and all, but itd defeat the purpose of u guys getting better at driving your car lol

Congrats on breaking your own personal best. I think it has a little bit more in her with a better 60'. What kind of tires are you running?
