Best 3 of 6

1.76 60'
7.66 @ 93.23 1/8th mile

1.79 60'
7.84 @91.69 1/8th mile

1.89 60'
7.78 @ 92.67 1/8th mile (WITH A PASSENGER, hehe a PREGERS Passenger no less)

Got some video I will load later.

It was a fantastic day. We had a SPECIAL TRACK DAY. The track openned just for us to celebrate a track day in Shawn "SALADBAR" Salazar's honor (One of our Trailblazer SS homies that has graduated to HOT ROD HEAVEN DRAG RACING!). It was a wonderful experience to hangout and see Shawn's TBSS crack off some remarkable times. Most everyone was at their PB's or better. Great day. Too bad it was just an 1/8th mile track but great times nontheless, on and off the track.

As a side note. These short times are with PFADT's sway bars and lowering springs. I'm getting better at launching the car. I took a HUGE hit in my short times after installing the bars and springs. Still used the drag rads and the front sway was connected. I plan to remove the end links the next time out to see if a little more weight transfer will allow for a little better short times.

I am fuggin STOKED with the short times. This car is the very first manual shift sports car I have ever owned. My launching is progressing NICELY. With much thanks and credit to Sam (Sam88gta1) and Brian (OrangeChevyII). When these boys post about how to launch these cars LISTEN. If I can have these results with their techniques ANYONE CAN!
