  • New worsts!

    Yea, ran pretty crappy yesterday.

    first run i went a whopping 16.063 @ 86.38 with a 2.482 60'. that sucked.

    second run i pulled a 15.646 @ 88.48 with a 2.338 60'. still not good.

    third run, bracket racing, i pulled a 15.442 @ 88.79 with a 2.286 60'. this one i launched with a quick clutch feather from about 2300rpm.

    so 4th run i was like "hey, lets up that launch to 2700". yea, dont do that. i spun the crap out of the car, and to top it off, i missed third gear too (ive NEVER done that at the track before, that was a first.) Went 16.1.

    Yea, some odd reason the car was just slower today, and im thinkin maybe the fuel filter, or the crappy gas i used (Sheetz winter gas). I dunno.

          with my other runs that i did at Cecil, if my 60' was lower i would have been in the 14's easily, no sweat.

          track prep at etown was good and weather was OK, but everyone seemed to be running slow for some reason.

          my lakewood LCA's are adequate, but i dont like the way they have the grease fittings set up. they were a PITA to get in, and even now, they dont go all the way in. If i were to do it again, i would get a different brand of LCA's
