Here's the one and only run from my adventure at the drags.
12.5psi, stock rubber and no helmet. :) Kinda dissapointing though.
The other car was a '04 Zo6 that did a big burn out and ran 12.9 @ 111mph.

Thanks Nick. It was a horrible run, imo. Gonna get some 15x8 Centerlines with MT ETs. 12.5 psi isn't even close to the sweet spot on that turbo so I can't wait till for a few upgrades so I can crank up the boost!!
Later.

I don't think that there is any reason to be a shame of thoses numbers.

did he red light or did you just not react very fast? i know you said it was a bad run, just asking. i was in a mk3 the other day that did the exact same launch, lol, these things have funny wheel hop.

he had a near perfect reaction time. I looked sluggish. Trying to line up and lauch with a RPS 6 puck is a pain. Big laggy turbos don't help much either. :)
I was more curious to see the MPH since it's the HP indicator.

13.6 is still a good run for a car built in the mid '80's. Nice one. I'm sure with a bit of tweeking it will be faster.

Wade, How much boost were you running when you raced Bill Phillips in his supra. He said you pulled on him in 4th gear.

Boost controler off - 9psi. That run at the drags was my 1st time running 4th hard with raised boost. I'm too chicken to break something and get stranded again. :)

Sigh. Well I have the freebe version and it works fine. I also use windows MP which is a CPU and memory hog and about 1/2 of my .wmv files don't work.
The .mov thing is a result of the defalt format my small camcorder uses. The nicer one which uses digi-tape i haven't got figured out yet. :runaway:
You got a new 1/4 time better than the 13.6@110 Wade?

Well, yes 2 years ago i ran a 13.4 at 104 and a 13.6 @ 102 w/ the stock CT26, IC and 8-9psi. heh.
Last week was rained out.
Avp23 - Andrew called me is heading to the races tonight. I'm gonna try to get down there. Did a few tweeks so the car should hook better this time.
EDIT: it didn't happen
Keep us posted, we want 12s!
