I'm headed out to Greer tommorrow to work on my launches. Won't be doing many runs because I still have a few kinks in the car broken suspension problems and oil leaks and stuff, hah. Buddy was heading out so decided to tag along. I'll probably be there right at 6 though. I hear it gets sketchy later on.
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..
Yeah I'm excited. It's about 115 degree's this week. Talk about being in a oven.
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.

i ran 8.4@89 in my mustang on limited boost because of pulley issues.. I'm only running 5psi now. .. what a blast though.. track sucks but it was a lot of fun and for 7 bucks what can you expect..hehehe.. I'll get the SRT out next week.
I love the fact you just drive up and go.. Tech what?? haha

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.

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.
