Nice job bud! Keep up the good work.

Post the slip and I'll update it later today.

You have enough mph to run 12's there if you could actually get the car to grip really hard...but then the transaxle would probably be in pieces. :icon_redface:

^^ Thanks guys. The car is 5 speed, full interior. i didnt launch on any of the runs, just a smooth takeoff. Also i didnt burnout or heat the tires before. Maybe i can mess with a few things and go back up next week, possibly launch the car. Also looking at the quarter mile TGP page, It seems I have 2 of the fastest runs since 2006!

Page is updated. Looks like you've got the highest trap speed for a TGP so far(unless Jeff trapped higher on one of his old runs).

EDIT: Jeff still has you beat by a bit in trap @ 109.66mph

I just realized ho depressing it is that I have been knockedout of third place. I guess in need to step it up I have been lazy a little too long.

I'm not fimiliar with drag racing, so I may be totally wrong here, but doesn't a negative reaction time mean you jumped? Which would make your time invalid? I'm not trying to rain on anyones parade just curious. Still an awesome run regardless, gotta love that trap speed.

You're correct that the negative reaction time means he "jumped"(redlight), but it makes no difference in the ET itself unless you're actually competing in an event.

^^ yup, if you look at the bottom of the slip it says Autostart Enabled . Unfortunatley im not going to be able to make it this Wednesday night because of work... maybe Sat, really looking forward to blockin the rear up and tryin to get traction in 3rd!

Dark Ride · August 02, 2011, 11:06:18 PM

OK, by no means was I trying to bash your time/run, I was just curious. So with the Autostart the clock starts ticking once you've "reacted" then?

exactly

Thats Cool! I learned something new.

Ike,
Send me a datalog and your extra chip. I see low 13's or even high 12's with your set up.

killinprixs · August 19, 2011, 11:20:09 PM

You the man!! ;)
