Who says '06s have to be slow?! New best time: 12.39 @ 111.2mph - Page 5

Stee · 10-16-2006, 05:07 PM

There was a serious headwind all day that day so that definitely took the edge off. I also ran a 12.58 @ 99mph because I let off and hit the brakes to avoid a DQ. I'm headed back this Sunday for the Toyo Tires event.

12.5 at 110mph are great times for the stock turbo and you still have room to improve. Good job.

LightWerkz · 10-16-2006, 05:26 PM

I predict 12.2 soon!

Dave your def a balls to the wall driver...very aweseome times!!!! Gotta teach me your secrets!!!!!

Stee · 10-24-2006, 04:26 PM

A little better...

28lb

, 245 section width tires DO NOT contribute to bettering 1/4 mile times, but they sure do stick better around turns.

Another problem when the temps start dropping is that the starting line get very unpredictable- it was a little difficult for me to get my normal 1.6 60fts the other night, although I only had 3 runs to play with.

My car will be undergoing a few, small changes this weekend.

congrats on the new best time... you are laying down some real nice times. I am curious how you launch to get so many 1.6s.
