Default I broke my record!

I went to the track saturday and beat my best! Previously it was 11.63, now 11.48! I lost mph tho, I put the clutch in too early, right before the beams in 3rd
But i was happy to be thrown out!
I didnt do a burnout, just cleaned off the tires, spun them a little...

heres the slip:

Wow - Congrats - Terrific run and excellent 60'.

Also, congrats on "getting the boot" at your track.
I'm sure you will wear it like a badge of honor.

Excellent driving!!!

Nice job. I've been to the strip 2 times in my z so far and 11.63 is my best pass. I'm praying I get kicked out next time! 11.48 would make me happy.

Nice job!

The warm temps led to reduced RWHP & Increased traction!

I'd be curious to see how much you can improve in the fall with better air!

Congrats again!

Luck

Good Luck happens often to people who work hard at something they desire to achieve.

Bad Luck happens mostly to those who sit on their butts and sing the blues.

Take pride in your achievements...they are 100% yours to keep.

Nice job and keep up the good work/good luck.

Nice pass... for a girl.... No, just messing with you. Great run! You can teach me how to launch the Z. My best 60ft is 1.92... but I have run 11.39 though.
