Saw yer' run last night. Did you make more than 1?? Like a mid13 @ around 106 right??? Not too shabby...that's mph for low 13s/high 12s.

Sounded like it might have been breaking up a little or something???

Yeah, I ended up making three runs throughout the night. I'm going to post a thread with all my slips. Basically the first run was a horrible launch (bogged nasty), 2nd run I missed 2nd gear, then the third run was very decent, but boost was going insane (oscillating from 12-16.5 PSI the whole run). First two runs were 13.5 @ 102, 13.5 @ 106 respectively, then the third run was a 12.9 @ 108.

Even on my best run, I was going .2 (and 3 MPH) slower in the 1/8th than my best, so I know I should have had a 12.5 if I had kept running...but those lines are fucking LONG!

Either way, fun night, met some cool peeps. And I think Fat Nick's brother got me a video of my first run (I've never heard quality audio of my car hauling ass).
