New Best MPH
I went to Carolina Dragway last night for the test and tune. This track is known as the “house of hook” and is normally prepared very well, although last night, for some reason there was very little traction. I could only manage 1.42 and 1.44 60 ft times and 10.21 and 10.22 ET’s. However, I set a new personal best mph in the 1/8 of 106.80 and 135.01 in the 1/4.

Danny,
Your times are fantastic. We will meet up at a track soon and you'll tell me your secrets.
It's a little cool for really good traction, but the MPH say the ET's will be there.

The Carolina Corvette Challenge has been held at Carolina Dragway for the past few years but this year the events are held at Darlington Dragway in Darlington, SC. In fact, there is a challenge this weekend. You should try to make it. BTW, I'm only about 1.5 hours from Bristol.
