Hey everyone,
After five years of owning my Cobra, I finally brought it to the track. About a month ago I bought a set of Bogarts, bought some new M&H 26x11.5-16's for the rears, and finally put them to use.
On 6/6/16 I did a track rental with some friends. The weather wasn't that great at 90 degrees all day, but we still had a good time. I haven't been to the track in 6 years, and never launched a car on slicks before. It definitely took some getting used to and I definitely need some more seat time.
The best pass of the day at Atco was 11.70 @ 117 with a 1.80 60'.
Yesterday on 6/11/16, I took the ride up to Lebanon Valley. I backed the car off the trailer, was first to race and ran a 11.42 @ 120.84 with a 1.63 60'. Now that's more like it! The tech guys were busting my balls for not having a cage being under an 11.49 and before I could even make another pass, it starting downpouring.
I know my friends and I are going to do another track rental in the fall, so I'm excited for that. The car definitely has more in it! The car should definitely be able to squeeze out a low 11 all day.
Thanks for watching :beer:
