You guys wanna try and keep this thread clean if you can? Its mainly for when you have a new track time or even talk about that time. You can start a new Event thread if you wanna talk about when your going to the track or when the track has its next test and tune. Just makes it difficult to look at the time slips if we have to sort through the other stuff.
Thanks :-)

When my car was running this is what i put down... 5/29/2009 fastest time of the night. FWD 1G gutted interior and a bad boost leak. not sure what i was at. i am going to say about 6-8 PSI.
60 ft 2.48 1/8 ET 9.55 1/4 et 15.65 @92.69 MPH
second pass was at 15.8 Looking to break some good speed in the spring with a power build this winter!! goal is in the 12's

Anyone else go to Martin tonight? Track prep was excellent suprisingly. I'm finally starting to get my groove back with the car. Unfortunately my clutch line started leaking before I made my 11 sec passes, so it went dry before I started getting better launches...but I was hell bent on a good time so I kept going. New braided lines will be going on this week.
Full weight w/AC @ crap heavy 19"s since my wheels STILL haven't been shipped Pump 93 25psi
1.8254 60-ft 11.86@120.75
Clicked off about 4 11.80s/11.90s before I called it a night due to complete lack of clutch pressure.

Thanks.
Yea I had Brad take my car to work on Friday and swap with him at the track so I didn't have to drive all the way out there to pick it up.
I noticed it sounded exactly like his EVO with the 35r on it, must be the .63 AR T3 housing I put on.

It started out a bit crowded with some of the larger/faster cars making shakedown passes for today. But at about 9 or so it completely emptied out. There was maybe a 5 min wait to make passes for most of it. By the end of the night, there were only about 4 or 5 cars just making hot laps. There was a dark grey 2gb that broke in the staging lanes, and a maroon 2gb that I didn't see run. I talked to him and he said he was running 11.80s I believe, but I'm not sure if he ran tonight.

i drove by on the highway and it looked packed from all the campers, but i guess i should have went! theres always the 25th tho and it looks like they're having tnt's till november so thats good.
are you going to stick with pump gas or are ya going to go with some higher octane?

Yea they had a lot of people come early for todays event. They mostly worked on their cars or watched. I'm shooting for 11.50s or better on pump, then I'll probably dump in some e85 or 116. I might crank it to 30 pounds for the next t&t and see what that does.

That was KCS fury that broke. The throttle cable was jammed at WOT. I saw both the silver and maroon 2g's run 11.80s. Man if it hadn't broken, that would have been 3 dsm's clicking off 11.80

I was going to stop by to see if you needed a hand, but the next time I came around it was gone. Couldn't fix the cable at the track to make a pass? Would have been sweet to have the only 3 DSMs at the track knocking off some good numbers.

guess i'm a little late posting this, as i went to martin on the 4th of september. ran a best of 14.1 @ 98ish. haven't run at the strip in nine+ years, so maybe with some more practice and track time, i might whittle that down before the engine building may commence. not thoroughly impressed with how i ran, but it was still a helluva good time!
