Not bad Paul, look how close to 14s you are. Sticky tires and who knows???

John

good job guys, I had a blast checking you guys run!

John you were there talking with us and next min. you were gone, hence my inv. man comment. thx for the vote of confidence, first air, tune,and internals than tires.

John, congrats!!! There's more in her though!

14.5 at 95mph, with a .750 RT and 2.2 60'------gotta drop the 60' and RT and i think i could be getting 14.0, new tires will help alot. they are bald stret tires.

Yea gotta works on that george. You dont want the v6s to beat you lol. i wanna see you and ed head to head, that would be close.

yea dont want that. yet if they do it'll inspire/motivate me to get faster. it would be a godd race. auto 4.0 v6 against manual 2v 4.6 v8.....hes tuned and im not. other wise mods are the same. lets do it ed.

I had a busy day Paul. Saw a lot of folks haven't seen since the fall, lots of new faces, and even spent some time with my mother who came to see me race for the first time ever. Then I had to skip out around 2:30 to do some other things. Great day though...just busy.

John

George, w/ some dr's, you will drop a 1/2 sec off your et.

just wondering the DRs u posted for sale....will they fit mine w/o modification (trimming the quarter)...id need 15 inch rims to run them but yea.

any advice aside form leaving sooner at the light to make it quicker? higher launch/roll off rpm? (revved to 3K and eased it off the line til i was moving enoguh that i could stomp the gas and bang gears)

The tires I posted are full slicks (not dr's) and too big for your gearing/power. And as far as launching, go on the last yellow, ALWAYS!!! W/ street tires, coming out hard is nearly impossible. Tire spin is inevitable. Stay outa the water box and don't worry about doing a burnout.
