Re: NVMC Drag Day June 27

Not for a drag day. If you're trying to run something other than a ford, you have to have prior approval. I know this b/c I have asked previously. I mean, it is a Mustang club event.

As always, I had a great time! Wish I could have gotten in a couple more runs, but I am glad I got the stationary burnout down, now I just need to fine tune it. And I am feeling the itch for some "go fast" parts.

Thanks to John for helping swap out the tires.....not once, not twice, but 3 times LOL.

I will work on the vids soon. It's awesome watching them in HighDef on the big screen!

I set a new best, although I thought I could get better 60ft times:
60ft - 1.880
1/8 - 8.76
MPH - 80.55
1/4 - 13.604
MPH - 99.96

I had a blast! Randy and I ran each other 9 times...Each one was neck and neck! I won the series but each race could've gone either way. Can't wait til next time!

Sounds like you guys had a blast, sorry I missed it all. Put those vids up soon!

It was a great time!

Running full interior plus aftermarket stereo stuff in the trunk really hurt my passes! I was hoping for some 13.3s as my best full interior/trunk stripped passes have been 13.2s. It was hot and the best I could muster was 13.4 @ 99 ... It was still lots of fun!

I lost count of how many tire swaps I did there at the track (all on the same two cars)! Not to mention the one I did the day before putting on my DRs at the house, then helping Spaz switch his back in his driveway. I still have to swap mine back, which I'll do tomorrow if it's not raining. Big thanks goes out to L for finding my wheel lock

Can't wait to see the video...unedited!!!!! ROTFL

by pikuoff on Sun Jun 28, 2009 8:46 pm

I watched the video...there is some good stuff on there that I didn't know about.

Someone needs to work on their burnouts...

by Croft on Sun Jun 28, 2009 8:48 pm

Yeah yeah yeah.....did you at least get the last 2? They were MUCH better!!!!! When the hell are you going to post the footage???

by pikuoff on Sun Jun 28, 2009 10:12 pm

I'll post em when I get the footage off the camera. Might be a couple days cuz I'll be pretty busy the next few nights. Patience!

Ok, Ed!

I don't know if I got your last couple, Laura... You did much better with the first gear burnouts as Sally couldn't stay in the water long enough to really smoke them up in second. I found that if I moved too far out of the water, those tires pushed me no matter how much I was standing on the brakes! Gotta love the DRs

Next time out, I hope to have an aluminum driveshaft, line locks and another trick or two to get this "full weight + some" back into the 12s!
