I wish I could say that I broke into the 8's.. 9.01 was the best I managed that day which is pathetic.. The car can definitely get into the 8's though and I'll be hitting up our tracks here to get back into the swing of things..

I had a good time runnin' there. I haven't ran in the 1/8th in a while so I can't compare it to other tracks as far as times. I'll need some slicks next time with all this competition coming I guess.

That's not bad at all, especially if you're stock or close to stock. That's exactly what my time was when I had only my exhaust at elk creek a few years back.

i was driving the del sol. 8.2 for an all motor del sol is a great time. this same set up in a lighter car would have gone into the high 7's with tires. next time we will have something more for you.
car went 8.23 @ 84 MPH with a 1.81 60 ft. car was bogging a little off the line. so i know it would have went faster.

that is impressive for an all-motor car.i was just surprised that there weren't any faster turbo cars there.
what's the engine setup?

There were a few dsm's out, a 1g and a 2g, don't know the details on the 1g, but it had a front mount, still ran in the 10's..the 2g was forged motor, BB 50 trim, etc etc but I couldn't talk Pres into running. He said I could drive it if I wanted, but of course I didn't have time to...
