Default First time on the 1/4 strip with the Cobalt SS









Just need to work on the 60ft times, I think 2.0-2.1's are possible, which should lead to 14.1-14.3's
anything other than a "soft launch" and I was getting some crazy wheel hop. I guess I need to install those torque braces I bought a few months ago
I also think with some drag radials, 13.9's are in sight

Damn, that is impressive. I saw you up there last night. You were the blue one with charcoal wheels? They look pretty good in real life.
