Well I should be hanging my head cause of thr results but I had such a good time I gotta tell ya the results anyway.
Track = 1/8th Mi
Temp = approx 75 degrees
Humidity = high
Track Conditions = extremely slick
first run (and I mean first time ever)
RT= 1.239
60 ft = 2.488
330 ft = 6.261
594 ft ET = 8.817
1/8 ET 9.379
1/8 MPH 80
The next two runs got even uglier at the line. It was so slippery at the first 60 feet I had to back out of the throttle to get hooked up each time. My reaction times were better but the 60ft times were terrible. My tree game is obviously slacking. Gotta practice that!! I was launching at 2500 RPM and would just sit and spin until I backed out of it.
Funny though, the thing that I worried more about was the 2nd - 3rd shift but all three were clean as a whistle. The truck really pulled hard thru 2nd and third once it hooked up.
I gotta find a better track. This track is lacking in user friendliness, had some rude comments from the good ol boys as I drove out. But no worrys, Ill be back and will get better.
I will post the slips for all to scrutinize tommorrow. Gotta scan them at work.
Was one heck of a good time!!!
