yeah..i know. was tryin to get into the 7's...but the heat was mesin with my times...and my knee was hurting. oh well.

not too shabby...there was a Vette there that was runnin a 150 shot and on slicks, he pulled a 8.1. NO cars on street tires were within a half a second of me....and there was only about ten other cars there that ran faster.....they all had slicks...and most of them were 6-7 sec cars.

not too bad on only 17psi...nith no NAAAAWS. and still hadnt hit any knocks at all.....coulda bumped timing another three degrees. but..i am pretty happy with results.

Not so good for me. Only getting 14.5 psi of boost. But figured it out when I got home. Boost map problems.

Best of 8.81@76 though. I'm still waiting on my turbo, though....

I know the feeling, I destroyed everyone myself last time out just the same. Not a bad time, and not a bad trap either. Any specifics on gas/boost as well as temps when you ran? Did they let you run in the groove or did they have that fucking bastard cone out? Did you do anything special at race time?

They had the cone out, but I personally didn't notice any traction problems.

"the beauty of AWD" I guess....

The cone was not the only problem, the big ahole that was in the stage area kept standing right by the close side entrance so every time I went in on that side I got at least one tire in the water. Oh well... my problem was wheel hop not water.
