I'm getting drag radials as soon as I find a set of stock FD wheels, then we can try again!

I have video.... I bogged so bad off the line that my grandmother would have beaten me in her Chevette.... BUT you didn't....

As sated above...my BEST run last nite was an 8.1 but that was when I was racing a faster car and NOT your FD...... I tend to do better against the drag cars out there

Our run was VERY CLOSE... drivers error on my part but no worries.... we will have many more opportunities to run.... things are just getting started....


You must remember..... You put down 415HP @ 13 PSI....Tuned by ??
I put down 370HP @ 15 PSI....Tuned by Steve Kahn, Dyno graph in hand if needed....

What happened to you yesterday? We all went because you said you were going and you were a no show.

Your son's FD spinning tires? I smelled his clutch after every run he made, you mean spinning/slipping his clutch!

We all make mistakes off the line, I spun 1st and 2nd like crazy, I shouldve just let off and not complete the run by flooring it after spinning like crazy off the line when I ran against him. But if it makes you feel better that I was "only" .4 faster than him even with my lack of traction, then that's fine. Your 8.1 is only .4 faster than my best run last night of 8.5 so we are in the same situation right? Lol...

Driver mod is all I'm going to work on...

+1 on DRIVER mod......

2nd , you LOST.... doesn't matter by how much...the fact is I posted a better time than you...with only 370HP to your 415HP...

3rd ...Thanks for proving my point.... Smoking his clutch and he still kept up with you..

BTW....Your trap speed means ****....I have run an 8.0 at Countyline with a trap speed of only 88mph... I have the slips to prove it...

I also have time slips with my 7.5 times if you wan to see them...

Here are some stats from my other timeslip from last night...

reaction - .249
60 foot - 2.055
Trap - 92.4
Time - 8.1

Either way, like I said last nite.... Moroso is where our FD's build good times and where I rather run hard... Countyline is just practice for reaction and 60 foot times... I don't like that track to much.
