New best time on opening day (video)

[Dingleweed]

Went to the track today for test and tune and got a new personal best: 13.220 @ 104.87. Best part was the vast improvement in my 60 foot, I got a 1.90... epper: I wasn't even being all that harsh with the launch. With some lower tire pressure and some better burnouts to warm them up, I think some 1.7s will be in the near future. (also, track prep wasn't all that great being the first day of the season.)

Here's a video of the run. I was actually running up against a Mach 1. He eecked it out in the end with a 13.0 to my 13.2 :bash:

Good start to the season epper:

Thanks! The front end is completely stock, well except for the heavy ass 17x9s with 275s.

I would burn the hell out of those DR's before every run.

What I couldn't understand is that my Nitto 555R drag radials wouldn't smoke. At first I was doing a 1st gear burnout keeping the rpms around 5500 to 6000 for at least 10 seconds. For the last few burnouts, I tried 2nd gear with the rpms around 5500 for around 10 seconds.... still not much smoke. Next time, I am just going to sit there until I see a cloud... :mj:
