Default Today at Ennis


I finally have some track times to do FASTech proud. The day at Speedfest started with a 12.26 and got better as the day progressed. The track prep was great. Never even chirped the tires once. Best time of the day was 12.04 @ 117.06 mph(even got warned about breaking into the 11's :D ). I competed in the Domestic/Import Street class and made it through the first round with a 12.088 @116.21. Then I made the mistake that ended the day. As I went to line up, they paired me off with a RT/10 viper. I thought to myself, I get to embarrass this viper and break into the 11's at the same time. Well unfortunately I only succeeded in embarrassing myself. As I went to stage I brake-torqued alot harder than normal to get the rpm's higher but as I went from pre-stage to stage I couldn't keep enough brakes on her and rolled forward tripping the lights(redlighted) :rolleyes: . Oh well, the 11's will have to wait for another day. But still a great day all in all. Times from today:

12.26@116.44 w/2.071 60 ft
12.14@116.05 w/1.977
12.14@115.56 w/1.964
12.16@115.87 w/1.993
12.04@117.05 w/1.951
12.08@116.21 w/1.946 (on runflats)
13.20@116.39 w/DEEP :mad
