If I go, it'll be just to watch....

With that many people there to race, I doubt you'll get more than 3 runs in the whole day..... if youre lucky...

BCM gathering/grill out?? :haveabeer

I am looking to get a hold of Greg @ GLD. Anyone have an e-mail address of phone number to contact him about getting a sponsor billboard put up at the track for this season.

I should be at the track around opening day, or I will definitely be there for the first Import Drag wars in the eclipse.

Thanks Lash!

The best time of the day was on 22psi, 820egt's (celcius), 12-14 degrees ignition timing.

0.095 rxn
60ft time not recorded
4.933 330'
7.435 1/8mile
97.96 mph
9.591 1000'
11.421 ET
122.21 mph

the 1st run and the 3rd run I was having tuning issues. 1st run, I was blowing out spark on 20psi. the 3rd run, I had preignition and let off before the 330ft and run a 13.1 at 74mph.




Great turnout today!! the fastest two cars at the track were the Jet car (5.4 seconds @ 280+mph), and Jake from Top Street with a 9.9 @ 141.

Great work Jake!!! The car has a ton of potential in it!

I ran 11.4 at 120 on 7 cylinders (my cylinder 6 intake rocker arm nut backed off and the valve was'nt opening completely) and I also had a pretty bad traction problem.
