I'm gonna start saving my pennies for more go fast parts (for the winter). Already have a new set of RE-11 rear tires in storage.... my 3rd set of rears for this car LOL.

Makes me very happy about my last 12.9at 109 because it was 94 and insanely humid. Blades what was the DA ? You can check on drag times, my da that day was 3100+

All the other Zs I went with went 13.8ish at 102-3

I need to get my flywheel back In and get my *** back there. My CAT needs to run In good weather tho!
Well they didn't have weather data for the track I was at, so I just used data for another track in MD. It's around 1450 ft, but I don't know how accurate that would be for where I was. The temps were definitely like 10* higher where I was though.

I think track prep might have been an issue as well. I don't really know how to tell, but I've heard the prep at Capitol Raceway sucks from every single person I've talked to about it. They call it Crapitol Raceway

Only went there because I live 15 mins away. Might just go to a good track 1 hr away next time after I get my exhaust installed. Also, I only broke 12's once that other day. The rest of my runs were low 13's, so yesterday wasn't too bad. My average went from low 13's to mid 13's.

Default since I just put one drag tire in car-looks like I'll be at R.P Sun.

What the hell, might as well go(Raceway Park). Till I get my new trans. I'll just try some slow/careful 2nd. gear shifting. Just realized, I don't know how to do that Joking but I'm serious. I'll put a 13.00 second dial in, & practice before race time.

12.67's today. no traction off the line. it rained, and was hot and humid.
it spitted rain mostof the day off and on.
It was one of the quicker times of the day every body lost a 10 th or more on the start line.
Line lock was great, TC is not for drag racing best pas was a 12.81.
still a great day considering the weather conditions,
The best 60 ft was a 1.95,
Differnt track
2 weeks ago it cut 1.853.s

I (trying to be modest hold the bolt on record in 07/08 hr class. Just like Jason holds the 370z class. In cool weather, I do 12.5s/12.6s with 1.69 to 1.8 60'. My best is 12.504 @ 110 mph. 1.69 60 foot. I have a time slip where I did 13.08 @ 72 MPH. That's from bracket racing where I needed to slow down not to break out. Since you don't know me, I should tell you, I'm an old guy Car will surprise you how stock it is.

JUST NOTICED This Sunday is import day at Raceway Park. I think......

I use slicks, but it took me like 10+ months to figure out how to truly use them. When you have only apx. 290 h.p, it takes more than just slicks or M.T. drag radials to do a 1.7 60'. I'm not asking for much tomorrow. I want to win & not break an axle. O.k I'll settle for not breaking down.

Ray's comment - I bring a case of wine, boxes of t-shirt/jeans that I sell in between runs, my medication, & my good luck cat.

Default Heartbreaks

Ok, thousands of people. Between car shows, P. Rico racing teams, low riders, side riders, most speakers in car contest, bikini contests, bands, a dozen different drag classes, even motor cycle racing. The whole of Raceway Park mobed with people and cars. Every race, color & species was there. Everyone was friendly!
"The Heatbreaks" I was there, and a group of maybe 6/7 other Zs were there as well. Before my first run in bracket two, all the Zs were gone. I love to see Zs at the track, & love to see them kick azz. Not today. "My heartbreak". Shifting into 2nd. gear is almost gone. So crowded, they only had time for one practice run. I made up a time for a dial in of 13.25. The class was the biggest. Three lines of cars in that class. Something like 60 cars. Two racers were old timers (pros. known by the track). One had best off wins, all over his old station wagen, the other one had 174 wins. NOT car wins Bracket racing/best of wins!!!! etc. 25 year old 4 dr. car, that's dialed in at 17.76 seconds & runs 17.76 seconds almost every time & the guy lives 15 min away, racing there for 30 years. You think he knows the lights Anyway, slamming on brakes, almost using two hands to put into second, having reaction times like .018 followed by .000. Yes, .OOO! by-run for lowest R/T. that & more got me to the last few cars. Both pros red lighted, go figure I'm about to run a Honda, that I was sure I was going to beat, when the trans made it very hard to get into second. I chase him down, only to lose by an inch or two. Pissed as hell, but what could I do? Lucky to get this far MY LAST RACE before getting new trans.!!!! Left track at 8 pm, just got home. Racing is fun, winning is more fun
