:D  :D  :D

I got 12.8s twice at Mission today, a 13.0....plus one HELL of a 14s smoke show on my first run for the whole 1/4mi :D  (I forgot to adjust my tires from 55psi down to 20psi)
114MPH trap
2.177 best 60' (practice....and making my front stiff too - normal street tires)
1 Gal C16 added to tank with 200ml of super juice.
20~21psi boost on the Evo.
Just a racing driver's seat and gutted hatch but with A/C, 200W stereo, power everything, normal hood and battery.

I guess my vacuum leak is ok then  :wink:

Great job marty, i'll post the video of your run as soon as i can. probably later tonight or tomorrow. Really sucks they wouldnt let me race, probably would have only got 1 or 2 runs in anyways cause it was so busy. What did toor end up with? Did they let him back on the track?

Ended up with a 13.6 @ 110.8mph, with a 2.7 60', once again proving I have the power but have no clue on how to drive.

After getting my exaust all bolted back on, they let me on the track no problem, but warned me to wear my helmet next time I go on the track.

Still dont understand how me running open downpipe exaust is louder than the outlaw cars  :roll:
