You're talking Thursday right?? I might as well head out as well even though it's not a 1/4 track would be nice to actually GET my car on the track down here..

But got some real good news. Sounds of things by the time I get back I'll have a 08 Shelby GT500 sitting in the drive way. Cosigner gave me the thumbs up to get it ordered so whenever the f*cking dealership email's back on the options I'll get mine set.

Will end up parting mine out mostly. I'll post when it's closer to the time.

Oh yeah, 115 degrees sounds good to me. Maybe it's the fried brain cells but I sure do miss that heat!

Glad you got there safe. How long do you have to be there? 3 months? . . . Damn Chair Force. jk man, how long is your deployment for real? Say hello to hajji for me

Well I did alright. Gained some experience. Was still getting owned by stock SRT's though. Getting traction is nearly impossible. 9.4@82 was best.

My best time from when I did the 1/4 mile in AZ with the broken axle was 8.9@81 so this track must really suck.

4 Months supposedly. They were saying the Air Force is going to 6 month rotations across the board. I wanted a 6 month rotation but they wouldn't give me one. The longer the deployment the more money. I'd take 1 year if they would give it to me.

Its sweet though, gives me time to think what color GT500 I want.

I call it the ice track; best 60ft was 2.12 with 8.8. with drag radials.

Nothing helps much on that track especially running big boost with stock tires like Creatre was; can't get the power to the ground.

Yah.. hehe I couldn't hear what the announcer was saying but I definitely had a lot of looks on the way back on the return road.. I REALLY need to get my plates switched over..

But I gotta take my Alberta MMMMPSI plate down the track one time just to get a reaction!

Sucks though I seen dodgezdad out there but didn't see you.. Seen another guy with a white SRT but I didn't know him. I'll be back though for sure.. Now that I know what it's like I'm definitely going to make it a habit of going.

Again though.. WHAT'S with the fricken trans ams and firebirds.. OMG I've never seen so many at a track ever.

1.96 60ft 8.94 79.8mph stock with 225/50/15 DRs the track is not the best but ice? I only see 9/10 psi in first so that helps alot but then I only get 13/14 in third that doesnt help.

Even when they prepped the track, any thing with power wouldn't hook up. Now he isn't prepping again, unless he's using water.
