Default Good time @ LACR

We ran @ LACR (2,710 ft) this weekend, during a heat wave in the desert.

I ran a 14.0 @ 100mph

This translates, according to http://www.lacr.net/week.html, to 13.58 @ 103mph

Not bad seeing I've never had so much as the valve covers off, it's got 120k on the odo, and I just pulled it out of 7month storage.

My best R/T was a .006

My R/T got me a by-run in the 1st round, so I have a nice little trophy sitting on my desk now

Bring Bastet's 87 up and go riproaring down the straightaway!

That's a good time. I guess us west coast drivers don't all suck.
