Default Re: Midwest Private Drag Day - May 17th

WOW What a great day !!! 75 and Sunny - Great racing weather !!!
Thanks to Wayne,Let MotorSports,Chicago Performance and Tuning and of course US 41 DragStrip!
Me , Steve Hellums , Bikecop (Eric) and Riot (Kirk) along with a bunch of guys with some kick **** modded Mercedes did some serious racing today.
To make it even more fun there were a couple of BMW's and a Mustang too.
It was my first time on a track. I have a 04 na Crossfire.
I ran first with the OEM air intake and my best time out of my first 11 runs was 14.9252
Then I put on my Needswings CAI and my best time out of another 11 runs was 14.7898.
I did a total of 22 runs and the car ran great.
Steve and Bikecop got a lot of runs in together and Riot ran quite a few too.
We had the track to ourselves and we were guests of ChicagoX from the Mercedes forum.
LET has done some mods on Kirk's SRT6 and his car ran well.
I think he got a 12.1 time in one of his runs.
Here is a link to all the pics today and I will be getting a lot of mpeg video files on you tube and will post those soon.
Keep watching this thread for more posts
