Default Another Best ET!

Did some more A/F tuning at the track and finally broke into 10.80's in hot weather!


60' 1.538
330' 4.459
1/8 6.923
mph 99.25
1000' 9.070
1/4 10.874
mph 124.00

Temperature was humid 85 degrees and the DA was approximately 2650 (according to a fellow racers device)

Thanks again to RevExtreme for all the work on engine and car!

Wow...great times. That's a sub 10.5 car if you were to bring it north during the fall and our -DA weather.

My goal is to get into 10.70's in hot weather (maybe even 10.60's) and low 10's in winter. If I manage to hit a sub 10.40 pass, I will add a 100 shot of spray to hit 9's
I'm planning a trip to Englishtown in November.. Unfortunately, I won't be able to race with the Vettes because my car isn't legal to run on Saturdays at E-town (no mufflers).
