So this was my first time in the 1/8.
So today probably was not a very good day for drag racing
Let me paint a picture.. lol. Track conditions:
86 degrees 95% humidity
This is at 9:00pm, that's FL for ya.
Here were my two best
Reaction ---- 1.00
60' --------- 2.28
330' -------- 6.36
1/8 ET ------ 9.77
1/8 MPH ---- 72.18
Reaction ---- .976
60' --------- 2.25
330' -------- 6.35
1/8 ET ------ 9.79
1/8 MPH ---- 71.83
The heat and humidity sucked. There was an LS1 Z28 I was talking to, he was running 9.3-9.5 all night (probably bad driver). There were no bolt-on LT1's for me to race, the only LT1's there were running low 8's and mid 7's. A LOT of mustangs there, there were 6 second full out drag mustangs, and the late 90's mustangs. I beat a few GT's.
I don't have much as far as mods (the reason I am doing this is because I want to see a before and after, I am doing a big cam build). Basically, whisper lid, !spare tire/jack, homemade ram air, E-cutout, torsen 3.42's, and a slight tune ( basically just transmission and tq management, but I softened the shifts a while ago cause it got annoying, so basically stock tune).
There was some redneck that thought I had an SS.. that made me
All in all though, I was spinning almost every run, and I had horrible reaction times all night. I need new tire (current ones don't have much tread left).
