Well, got to the track a little later then I wanted. 1st pass off the trailer I wasnt sure what to expect, never ran et streets, never ran the car at the track.....so I gave her heck! Good 2nd gear burnout.....launched somewhere between 4-5k and it hooked like a MOTHER! Wow thats amazing, 2nd gear came faster then I could have imagined, touched the limiter for a second then rowed through the rest.....WOW does the car sway bad in the top end running 275 radials up front and et streets in the rear. Well, full weight street trim save for the et streets car went 12.065 at 116.18 mph on a 1.69 60'!!!!! Who woulda thought, eibach sportlines and a suspension set up to do twisties would cut a 1.69! I was stoked and knew 11's were right there without a messed up 1-2 shift!
Well waited in line a little, and finally got to go again. I musta not left as hard only cut a 1.78 60' but when I hit 3rd the car started swaying so bad I had to let out of it, got back in it for a second and crossed with a 12.4 at 110.....it was kinda scary how much it was swaying up top.....sounds like I need to run drag radials or get some strip wheels/tires!
I went back to sit in line, but bu then the line was so long, I decided with how much the car was swaying up top and how long the line was, I wasnt going to wait in line agian, so loaded the car up and decided to watch some runs...good thing I did, because they had two breaks after that and were not letting people go to the staging lanes, it was crazy!
Great times, and I am hooked, but not sure when ill get back, but I know the 11's are right there for me! Maybe next time, Ill get my goal of an 11 second car that can cut corners or go straight haha
