New PB Tonight!!

Went to Texas Motorplex tonight hoping to get in the 11.6X range and just couldn't get traction. The track prep was not great at all for that track. Normally they prep good but tonight was challenging. Finally got 1 decent 60 again soft rolling the throttle and hit a
NEW PB 11.70 with Bolt Ons Only!!

I'm inching closer and closer to that #1 spot!

Thanks guys! Didn't think I was ever gonna get traction last night. Of course I was trying to go all out, and the track just wouldn't hold at all. I would spin straight into the 2gear shift bogging it down. John, I had to do just like you mentioned in your post, had to leave soft and just let it grab then get in it.
There is .06 left in the 60ft and with neg -1000DA another .1 and +1 mph
So I think it will go 11.54 on a Dead Hook Perfect run.
It's gonna take Houston or LA to get it I'm sure.

I'm disappointed. I came into this thread expecting news about some new kind of peanut butter.
