That kind of headwind is definitely going to hurt :(

Looks like the weather is going to hold out. Got my GoPro charged and setup to work remotely with my phone.

Have fun guys!

Track got too busy, waiting almost an hour for 1 run. The Accord would have won anyways at the end, I ran 15's my last 2 runs. If I have to wait in line to race for some reason my car runs like crap.

We are going to try later, maybe the track won't be too busy.

+1, waited an hour for my last run. But the last run was against a 3v Mustang GT manual. It was neck and neck.

I'm car 260. Track prep was horrible, hence the near 2.4 60 foot times.

I won so he kept flooring it past the 1/4 mile marker for no apparent reason.

MagnumForceGB and I didn't get a chance to run but I ran a stock 2012 V6 Camaro auto. Not really apples to apples, I think bolt on manual Camaro would be good race.

p.s. magnumforce can't wait to see your gopro vids against your mustang!

DA was 1900 today btw guys.

I would have lost badly. I'm starting to think I suck at drag racing, I can't put down times like others. Should be able to race in March, maybe the track won't be as crowded and better rubber will be laid down.

Is Thunder Valley having a test and tune again next weekend?

Yes, I'll be there next sunday if the DA is better....

Sweet, I'm gonna try to go

Whats done to the Accord? Definitely disappointing numbers from the Auto V6. Got toasted!

Too bad we aren't closer 08, looks like we'd be a good run. I think with some actual bolt ons I could trap 102-3.

Not at this track. I've heard lots of people say the prep is not good and the DA usually hurts too.
