2955lbs race weight with half a tank and the stock battery/tray still in.  Next time out I'll be aiming for 1/4 tank and I'll have the lightweight battery/mount installed.  No cage in this 100% street driven daily driver.

did they kick you off the track then?  I thought if you run faster then a 11.49 you have to have a cage??  or is it 12.49?

Congrats on the 10 second pass!!!  WICKED!

Nobody said anything to me.  When I ran 11.1 @ 133.9mph on the very first pass I thought for sure someone would give me the 'slow down or park it' talk.  On the third pass I ran 11.01 and was regretting not installing the battery.  That would have been a 10.99 with the lightweight battery Smiley
