Talking i finally made it

i made it into (just barely) the 13. second club.

first run: 14.034@97.18 which beat my other record of 14.060
2nd : 13.973@97.10
3rd : 14.075@96.56 don't know what happened there
4th: 13.962@97.64
5th: 13.952@97.59 to kill a mustang 5.0 with the race stickers all over it. i thought for sure he was going to hand me my azz. i have to give him one thing though.......the stang sounded good.


all grins

You 'done good'! My first trip down the 1/4 resulted in a 14.xxx et. masterloggie rode with me to tell me what and what not to do--LOL, I left the a/c 'on'--ugggg.

My next trip got me to 13.477, but my L was modded(chip, 2# pulley, and air filter) and yours is not. I wish I had run mine 'stock' but never did. Excellent times!

I'm so sorry this has happened to you. You are now a speed addict ....probably dont even realise it.......you are about to spend 4 times the money you originally planned on mods Congrats!
A new personal best will definitely make you grin. Isnt it funny how 13.99 seems 2 seconds faster than 14.01?

Keep going, if it only takes money it's not a problem!

Sorry I couldn't be there Weds. I just got mine back from the dealer today with a fresh IC. I think I'm ready for one of those 4# pullies to push me into the 12's.

Cablebandit speaks from personal experience--RAOTFLMAO! Get this; he installed a turbocharger on his WS6! He's got one a those lap top, do-it-yourself tuners in the front seat, and a several tools--he keeps crawlin' under that low-slung black beauty and twistin' screws and things. Oh, btw, he runs 12.4s all nite long--as long as his clutch doesn't hang up. Yep, he has whupped my azz a few times.

Jerry----See ya tomorrow nite you modifying north GA. LS1 geek!
