Poor weather.
It was raining all morning and they were feaverishly drying the track.
Extremely humid.

full tank of gas, passenger seat in the bird

1/8....7.735
mph....88.02
1000...10.158
1/4....12.219

Spun a bit, didn't check the rear tire psi which increased to 17.5
3rd pass:
60.....1.591 <---- HOLY **** AND I SPUN!
330....4.840
1/8....7.649
mph....87.12
1000...10.101
1/4....12.191

I dead hooked but somewhere around the 60 ft mark the tires let loose?!?!?! The 60 ft was there, good et, but where was my MPH?!?!?! Everyone was down 3-4 mph due to weather so I'm not complaining!
4th run:
60.....1.640
330....4.954
1/8....7.801
mph....86.03
1000...10.281
1/4....12.391
mph....106.60
SPUN BAD!!!!! Came close to the wall. Rear tire psi was again up to 17.5, I dropped it to 14 for the next pass.
5th run:
60.....1.584 <---HOLY ****, SPUN AGAIN!!!!
330....4.880
1/8....7.748
mph....85.32
1000...10.248
1/4....12.379
mph....105.50
DEAD hooked off the line, and then somewhere around the 60 ft mark the tires let loose and SPUN BAD!
All in all it was a KICK *** day.
Bird was 150 pounds heavier than normal.
This weight will be removed for AIS. Also I am looking to have another 60+ pounds out of the car for AIS.
The track conditions were poor, they sparyed VHT somewhat up to the 60 ft and then nothing after that. Weather was rainy in the morning which delayed the event by a couple hours.
It was humid but cold.
Well, move me to #2 spot please!!!
And let me say this again......1.584 60 foot and I SPUN!!!!!
