Default went to the track

Best I could do is 12.3@116 2.0 60. The other three runs were all 12.4@115 with 2.0 60s. Tried launching off idle and footbreaking and same result.
Mods are off-road x kooks axle back and bbr 93 tune

Wish I would've known a few local guys were going, I would've gone

How was the prep? Were you in the right lane?

Little river? If so that's a good way to get shitty track times. Nothing like facing a line of trees at the back end of the track. Slowdown area isn't much longer than the burn out area.

Yeah little river. I think it did pretty good. I hot lapped it pretty bad. I did 3 runs within maybe 15min of eachother all three 12.4 @ 115. The 60 is just killing me.

Not saying your times are bad. Just saying your car would be faster on a better track. Last time I was there the right lane had a crack in it and the left lane had a bumpy area about 10 feet past the 60 foot marker.

Oh they use to have timer issues. I once ran a 9.25@93 mph in my 95 trans am with just cai and exhaust. I 60 the shit out if that car lol. I don't think the timer got set until I hit the 1000 marker lol. That car was slow.

They might have fixed the bumps since then, felt smooth.
Da was between 600-800 for the runs.

You are pretty disconnected and haven't been there in some time as obvious by your post.

The track has changed owners and they brought someone in who knows how to prep the track and is allowed to.

The shutdown area hasn't changed but it isn't bad. Recent runs.

Damn sorry I'm so "disconnected". Please feel free to school me up on a lil piss ant track. It's just being there for 6 yrs it always kinda sucked. Hell it still looks ghetto.

Please tell me they fixed the death bleachers too.

Seems kinda funny that you see and hear a car run straight as a string to mid-10s at 130 on a track, and still call it a shitty track.

Fast car do doubt. Track might be nicer than it use to but I'm sure it's still not all that great. My opinion.

When some of the Dallas guys are making the trip to LR instead of some of the DFW area tracks, it's worth it.
