My second time out - Darlington Dragway SC

Basically the same as my first!! My MPH is slightly better, but 60' and ET is about the same and I was running 555R's at 18 pounds. I was really hoping for an 11 second run.
First time back in April - I'm car 108



My best runs from today. I think I have my shift points where I want them now thus the higher MPH.



Do you guys think I'll see some 11's when it cools off?

I think you will see 11s tomorrow if you get the 60ft down.

True true...I deserve that one

I just remembered that I ran with nannies off for all runs. First time, I only turned off traction control. I need to figure out my launch with these tires and not count on the car to do it for me.

Put some radials on the back and you'll hit 11s for sure
I agree though. Go back when it gets cool out and you'll see 11s.
