With no weight reduction at all. spare still in, tailgate on and 22's all the way around. 80 deg weather she went 13.5, I think it was 98 or 99 MPH.

Sure feels faster than that on the street, lol.

My PB and this run where stalling to 2500 RPM. Tonight I'll leave at 1500 RPM or so. Try to let it flash a little more.

Well, we didn't make it

R/T .112
60' 1.810
330 5.292
1/8 8.236
MPH 82.20
1000 10.837
1/4 13.049
MPH 101.72

This is the best run of the night and it hick up'd in second. Had it not done that it would have been the magic pass. I know for sure now that my tires are shot. I don't know how much of difference that makes, but I think that's most of my problem. Traction for me was **** and this is the only pass it hooked. I did get one 102.66 MPH pass in though, lol. Braces are going in the daughters mouth next month, so new tires will be on the back burner for awhile.

Thanks for tuning in
