Default Track Day Pics...

Late in posting these but 3 of us from DeRidder went to Evadale Dragway In Evadale Texas a couple weekends ago. The weather was decent with the DA around +1800' which is way better then its been this summer with some days as high as +3800'. My car ran a best of a 12.13 @ 112 with a 1.70 60' .Its a cam only car with over 120,000 miles on it and running better everytime we take it out !!..

My buddys new GrandSport ran 12.50's with only 3000 miles on the car and still is stock as it came from the dealer..The black Z ran mid 12's after not being run in over 2 years..Enjoy..

MSG C5 I seen the Charger run earlier and he ran a 13.90 @ 100. When I started to the staging lanes he followed me up and asked if I didn't mind running him which I didn't. He also picked the lane he wanted and again it didn't matter to me because I've run Evadale enough that both lanes are pretty good..

On a .500 tree my reaction was a .501/his .548. My 60' 1.87/his 2.01
my 1/8 7.93/his 7.93 then at the 1000' he blew pass me 10.33 to his 10.20 and at the 1/4 I ran a 12.36 to his 12.10..I walked over and talked to him after the run and as I thought he'd sprayed me most of the run.!! I don't know how much but the car had no backseat and I could see the bottle mounted in the trunk..
