Late launch, let off @ 1/8th, Still Smoked the Mustang *vid*
 
Killed a Honda too, but its nothing too exciting. These are two of my last passes for the 2008 season. After that 10.8, they told me to slow it down since i don't have the proper safety equipment. The second pass i was going to go all out again since it would be my last pass but it went way rich in 3rd and started to break up. I'm assuming caused by my air temp correction table (it was cold), but i can't tell because i forgot my laptop and wasn't logging. It was still a 7.0 in the 1/8th and i let off just before the 1/8th marker, got on the brakes pretty hard because i actually thought something was wrong and it turned into a mid 12 @ 66, :lol: I know that burnout for the second one was ridiculous, but i wanted to make sure they were nice and hot because the track was starting to get very cold. Makes for a good vid with the flames and all! Both of these 60's were in the 1.5x range.

Here is the vid:

Haha, yeah, that was earlier this year and a terrible launch. Its pretty much a normal occurrence at that track. I really need to pony up and get a 6-point, fire jacket, and the rest of the stuff.

Thanks!

Mods are Greddy T88, 1/2 Bridge, Meth Injection, and all the other stuff.

Yeah, always 2nd gear burnouts, get the heat in the tires much quicker and doesn't heat up the motor as much.
