Mark,
Are you going down Friday night for what they call Club 1320,Friday nights from 10pm till 2am.I'm going to run my newly aquired 99 FRC Augustino 382,
I'm not much of a drag racer(I mostly run SCCA,not in my Vette)but I figure I'll give it a shot to see what it will do.

I'd love to but that's a little late for my blood :lol:

I've been out for the past 2 weekends in a row attending vette events and am hosting/working one next sunday.....guess I'm trying to say, I'd better not push the limit with my wife :D

Let me know how it goes...cooler weather, better times!

Make sure to check out the post about the Race Rock Party next weekend :D

I will probably be there...you have to challange or be challanged by another to run...no $ but fun just the same. You should dominate with your setup. Mark, wife allow 2 days in a row?

Anybody else? the more the :cool: er!

Damn, I gotta find a track that will let me run without the rollbar. What was your 1/8th time and speed? Maybe you can post the slip(s). The only number I remember from my first and only run (I got kicked out for running under 13.445, even though I used my brakes and went thought the traps at 75 MPH) was the 86.15 MPH at the 1/8th.

Those sub 2 second 60' launches are nice aren't they. That was my first ever. I wonder if my 3/4 of a tank of gas helped with my launch. My car is so traction limited. Sounds like you're doing a great job.

What tires are you running?

Jim
