The rain almost spoiled our fun, but it all worked out in the end, and the rain actually brought the temps down a bit. As we loaded my friends mustang in the rain the report from the track was that it was all clear. So we hid out at the Harley shop until the rain let up and made our 30min trip.
I let the car cool a bit then made my first pass. I challenged a brand new C6-Z06. Should have got some practice in first. He beat me 12.2 to my 12.6. Bad launch for me, but he did red light so I guess technically I won. He was pretty shocked though and asked how much I was spraying. I laughed and told him none. I finally let him know that it was supercharged and we chatted a bit. Cool guy and a bad *** car, I bit off a little more than I could chew.
Next run I pulled the passenger seat to see what would happen. I've been thinking about getting some lightweight racing seats. So I decided to test the weight savings. I ran a 12.5
I let the car sit for about an hour. I then decided to pull the grill and pack my IC tank full of ice. I was now getting the hang of launching the car and had a pretty good technique. Stall it up till it lurches then a quick mash of the gas while simultaniously releasing the brake. It felt great off the line. I ran my best 12.3@112 then hot lapped it right after and ran a 12.4@111.
I am very pleased, considering I have the same exact tune as Needswings, but no manifolds=pig rich and My exhaust is hacked due to a crappy E- cutout install, that are now blocked off. Once The weather cools and I get my hands on those intake manifolds 11's should not be a problem.
