My first pass I ran a 12.68 right off the highway while you were moping around running mid 13's needing Ryan to pinch drive for you and he went 12.57 in your own car! lol.
When you went 8.0 he went 8.1 so that's pretty damn close. I know this cause Nic text me the time slip.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

Yeah, that was a good race. I was pissed I missed the gear cuz I was pulling away from him and would have won.

Woulda, coulda, shoulda. He got the wins. I will be back! /arnold.

Sounds like y'all had fun. I'll try and catch up with y'all next time. I'm kinda suprised the weather held. It was kinda cold and misty here in Allen Friday night.

It was great. We practically had the track all to ourselves. It was cold but the mist didn't start falling until 10pm or so. It was still fun though. I look forward to the next group track night.

My best et has been a 12.36, so I'm sure I'll have my hands full with some of you 6MT cars. Unless I get my upgrades installed before the next one! Still haven't ordered yet.

Bone sock on radials. Track sucked but I did hook finally on this pass.
This is exactly what I needed, my car ran an 8.07 at Kennedale a while back, I figured around 12.40's in the 1/4 but had a 1.94 60'. What tires were you running, I was still on the stock Pirellis.

Mickey Thompson Street Comp Radials 285/35/19 I had shit traction until I dropped them to 20psi.

Makes sense, plus not a lot of sidewall. I won't go without some 15" on DR's, maybe I'll be a little faster than expected. That's a damn good time for stock with some tires though. It took my auto a tune and O/R x-pipe to run that.

I had fun but the mist kept me from getting in the 12's. 13.03 was my best with a2.15 60ft. First couple of passes I didn't have the traction control off correctly. I think it will run some 12.80s on stock 19s. I guess for a car with less than 400 miles on it it did ok. Every pass was faster than the previous. I was slightly disappointed that the mist came when it did. The car had a 12 in it next pass.

Stock Boss lol. I was disappointed actually. I should be running 12.2, but everyone was about 2 1/10ths off.

I agree. I'm sure the mist and cold pavement had plenty to do with that. But it was fun still and your Boss looked great going down the track! Nice to see one being used for a change rather only leaving the house for cars and coffee. lol.

I'm verifying online, but I think I ran the fastest in the country with a Stock Boss on radials.

12.17 @111.75 1.83 60ft - mph off as I missed 5th so car has 11's in it's future even on radials. It was 59 degrees. This was a Dallas Raceway this weekend "Crandall"
