Default New best 1/8 mile with my 100% stock '92

I know that my '92 is not that fast but considering that it's 100% stock, it's not all that bad..

Tonight, I came close to 8's in the 1/8 mile and I would've been in the 8's if I would've stayed in it but I left off the gas as it was a bracket race and I was ahead of my opponent.. Still lost as a broke out...

R/T: .054
60': 2.030
330': 5.860
1/8: 9.019
mph: 77.34

I had dialed 9.04 and broke out by .021

Some of us northerners wouldn't consider that a problem.
