May 22 was the first Midnight Mayhem at Cordova Drag park and for me it was awsome! My first night back since last fourth of July, my four runs were 1. 14.7 at 92mph 2. 14.68 at 93ish mph 3. 14.65 at 93ish mph 4. 14.67 at 93ish mph. I lost the slips their in the laundry somewhere. The opponents were 1. a looking to pretty 2000 mustang. 2. a chipped quad cab silverodo. 3. a newer 2.4L turbo neon with a moose call on his blow off valve. 4. the only one I lost to was a first gen mitsubisi eclipse five speed turbo. All and all a good start to the year.

As far as mods: Topgun 160 chip, MSD coil packs, K&N air filter, jeff m crossover,a hack job 3" exhaust from the down pipe to the stock y pipe and from the y pipe to two XL Performance mufflers, and I removed all the seats the radio and all the trunk fluff. plus the car is pushing just over 191,000 miles on the odometer. It does have a lowermilage turbo on it though.

Midnight mayhem July 3 was pretty cool. I arrived early for part of the test n tune fun night only thing I got to do to the car was swap the bridgestone potenza tires for the Kumo escatas from my 90 to my 89, which is the only one that is set up for racing. It ended up runing 14.4 n 14.5 pretty consitant all night except a 14.8 right after a small spell of rain. Other than that a good night. I hope to get the one good video of the night up soon, I will let you guys know as soon as its up.

Does that track print the 1/8th mile trap speeds? If so, please post those. ;) Scan your fastest slip and I'll you to the 1/4 mile page if you want to be added.

By the way...Have you made any passes with NOTHING removed from the car for comparison?

Another Midnight Mayhem in the books Best time for July 31 14.164 at96.22mph. Still on regular street Kumo Escata tires but I deleted the A/C this time. I got ten runs in too many to type up but I started the night out running 14.5ish for about tree runs and couldn't figure out why I was running slower than last time. Then I decided to pull the extension tube out of the air filter for my HHO generator, which ran right into the mouth of the turbo. Once that was clear then I hit the 14.1 and I was freakn ready to roll.

BEST RUN
R/T.....845
60'......2.183
330.....5.941
1/8.....9.098
mph....75.4
1000'...11.830
