New best mph
Weather was ideal today. About 40* and partly sunny. Not my favorite track, so wasn't expecting a new best. Also, it was crowded with several breaks so I never got the launch figured out.
My very first pass, the car impressed me. Took it easy off launch, but she delivered the mail on the big end.
60........1.635
1/8.......6.787
1/8.......106.67
1/4......10.31
1/4........140.85
That's a new mph best by 1.00mph!
Second pass I ran a 9.97 at 138.8 with a 1.50 60'. Third pass 10.03 with a 1.53 60'.
DA according to dragtimes was -700 to -800
