Where are are all the PB’s?

[SilverBillet]

This is the time of year where you guys should be seeing some negative DA’s? Other than @fumanchu182 winning the 10.0 eliminations last weekend, @jonx96 breaking an axle trying and others struggling to go as fast as they think their build should go, it seems kind of quiet out there?

 

[Mean Cat]

Down here it's still hot, just waiting on some cooler weather & 0 > negative DA & the good ET's are coming.

 

[SilverBillet]

I hope you get your personal best et and mph soon but there’s plenty of good air somewhere North and East of you!

Nov 20th 9.7 or bust.

Going to a private track rental this Friday. Car is stock except for MT drag radials. PB so far is 10.60 Shooting for 10.30 on Friday

Ask Jon about bust
Too soon

No personal best but I was there with Jon and went 10.62@130. The FAST race was suppose to be this Friday with a rain date of the 5th. They just said they will run it this Saturday with the tnt. Very sad about that. We will be losing a test day and if Saturday is busy it is going to suck with them trying to run their race along with tnt. My plan is to take the Challenger out Saturday for tnt. The track will open the 6th but if it rains then this would be the last day of the year. DA will not be below 0 and I need a good day to get a new best in the TAXI

I asked about the 5th and they said the track isn't available so something must have changed from when they announced it for the rain date

We have had a hot humid fall. Things are cooled down now but we have got tons of rain. So humidity is higher than I’d like.

Projected DA for 131 this weekend looks to be 500-1100 feet

 

[jonx96]

@fumanchu182 I had the same theory.
@Speedy! Didn’t know it but I wanted to beat his PB. is it still racing if he didn’t know we were racing?

You guys get stupid low DA in the winter. Do you have an alternate track when Houston closes?

I only got out once and was plagued with shifting issues still managed 145 mph on pump gas .

Just waiting my my DS. My goal is to eventually get in the 10's with a 6speed, but I'll be happy with 11's for now with my set up.

Like Mean Cat said, its still hot down here.

Well I managed to get a few sub 1.5 60' times that I haven't seen another stock powered/geared car do at any weight. My 10.46 was an old PB that was only broken in much colder weather later in the year. A trap speed at just under 134mph is another high bar for a stock powered car.
Unfortunately I have to tune out an issue with the cat recall that keeps messing with fueling. I thought it was cured but for some reason as the DA drops it gets worse.

When HRP closes next April, we have HMP but it's 1/8 mile.
But now HRP is down until the beginning of next year bc they are setting up a drive through Christmas light show which I think is BULLSHIT.
We have a track rental day at HRP on 1/8/22, so hopefully that will be a killer DA day.
Until then we will be at HMP 1/8 mile.

I don't travel hundreds or thousands of miles chasing DA, I wait for it to come to me.

I meant for the other racers North and East of you.

Ok, but I was the only 1 that posted up to that point so it seemed you were speaking to me

 

[Speedy!]

I've pinged our track manager twice and waiting for them to announce another limited track rental. Hoping for one in the next couple weeks, I need to know what GoManGo will do on a kill tune with E85.

We are going to Millington, Tennessee this Saturday. I am hoping to go low 9’s, if there is good track prep.
