Default went to the track, 14.9 @ 102

They must not have prepped the track because I had no traction til 1/8 mile it felt like. Since Seguin was closed I went to 'Smoking Alamo Dragway'. It was almost not worth the drive. Before the converter I ran a 14.2 and I was hoping for a 13 but I guess I need slicks <img border="0" alt="[bang head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />

You definately need some tires! With that MPH you have the potential for mid to low 13 with some good short times. You must have been spinnin you *** off to get that ET though. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Traction at alamo? I think they oil it to keep the dust down! How do you like that speed bump just past 60'?

well I don't remember the speed bump at the 60 but the chunks of mud at the end of the track were nice! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> On my first run I was going to turn off of the track at the first exit, until I saw it disappeared in what looked like a lake. Ok it was probably only a few inches deep but I wasn't going to drive through it.
