Default FINALLY ran my 11's

Last night was a good night even though the track wasn't prepped(as usual on Friday nights). I got three passes in 11.90@117.48, 11.90@117.xx and.................

The DA according to drag times was 1337 which is unheard of here in vegas. The best I've ever ran in here is 3000.

So, was your time the one one the right or left? haha jk Good runs, and congratulations. Dang, whatever was running in the other lane was just hitting the 1/8 when you finished. lol Grandma is gonna be pissed when she gets her car back with bald tires.

I'll let you in on a little secret............I utilized my custom 3 gallon resevoir in the trunk filled with ice water. My IATs dropped from an average of 110*-170* all the way down to 45*-105* throughout the entire run. Now I can make as many passes as I want as often as I want without having to worry about heatsoak from the 185 pullies.

I just checked dragtimes for the hell of it and apparently I now have the quickest Crossfire in the world...........without the use of any spray.

Just a few observations regarding the video:

- Nice burnout.
- The lights came down and you just checked out. Very cool.
- The video was a bit cut off at the end but it sounded like the female camera operator exclaimed "eleven eight four, holy fuh" at the end. Very cool indeed.

Great videos that was a Hoot! Thanks for posting them up. Especially liked the "Holy Shi*" at the end. Have you thought of using dry ice for your custom cooler? You'd have to vent the CO2 outside of the car of course.

That was probably one of my best burnouts...........the inside of the car had a white haze until I rolled down the windows that would put Los Angeles to shame.

Due to the lack of prep I was only launching at 1500rpms and rolling into the throttle

That was my fiance doing the commentary and filming. You should've heard her response on my first pass of the night(and first ever 11). lol
