FD vs FD (zinx vs Radkins) *Vids* *Pics* and more
Radkins and I went to a private drag day put on by a local club this past Saturday. We decided to line up and I put the hurting on him. Of course, I was on ET streets and he was on regular street tires. 
This was about 16 psi of boost for me and my first pass on ET streets (first pass that i didn't break anything). I'm not sure how much boost he was on, but he was peddling it all the way down the track. Ran an 11.63. I still need to work on the ET streets, but after day 1 I am impressed. At higher boost it was just spinning them like a street tire. I did lower them to 13 psi but it didn't help.

I also liked this run against this black foxbody. It was a good race, my 11.66 to his 12.1.

High boost runs will come as soon as i can figure out how to hook up.
Here are some pics:
Getting ready to do the burnout
Radkin's FD
My FD on street tires
Lining up
Already starting to pull (notice the crack through the strip)
Damn, these ET streets hook.
Final time 11.63 @ 125.7 to 12.69 @ 126.83
In the pit
GREEN!
Putting some distance on the GTO

Had a fun time at the track. I only ran a few times because on street tires it was ice the first half of the track. Zinx's trap speed is stupid fast for 16lbs on ET Streets.
