I just got back from the track(HMP). I added a set of drag radials(305/35) today. DA was 2055ft when I left the house. It cooled down some, DA was probably between 1800-1900ft during the passes. My car is stock besides the Drag Radials. Race weight is 3320.

Made three passes, then I called it a night. Best 2.

.3554
1.8496
5.1685
7.9481
90.13mph

.2833
1.7865
5.0544
7.8286
90.08mph

I need to work on getting the 60ft down in to the low 1.7's. Track prep was good, as always at HMP. All in all, I was happy with the runs. I'm hoping for 7.60's with cool air and a little more practice.

It's a ton of fun. I like our local 1/8 mile track, it's not too crowded, they prep it fairly well, and yes, it is addictive. Also, it's nice to see what your mods do in the real world, not just on a dyno.
