From what I saw on fb, bunch of broken axles, and a 9.8 @ 150.

The track had tons of grip, to much for my setup. I broke 5 axles in 3 passes, the number of cars and classes plus no open time trials limited me to 3 runs Saturday and 1 elimination run Sunday morning.

First pass we upped tire pressure to 16psi, and left the line with 8psi. We broke both rear axles at the line.

Swapped out both axles and the 2nd run left the line at 7k with a slip launch no two step. 1.6 60' and ran a 9.8@150.

We made some changes and for the last run of the day we left the line at 7k again no 2 step and broke the driver rear axle at the 30' mark and the car took off for the wall, I counter steered and let off.

Swapped axles and made a few more changes, tire pressure was set to 22psi and our first round of eliminations Sunday left the line at 7k again no 2 step and broke both rear axles at the line, the other guy did not red light, or break out, so that was it for the weekend.

It was a fun weekend and we will try and come up with a plan for cedar falls later this year.

Last Friday night the car made its way all over the streets of down town like it was the early 2000's. We hit up the sears lot by the capital, holiday by spring steet, parked at the Rainbow lot, drove around a hole lot and had a great night.

Rolled with a twin turbo viper that could have been a fun race, but conditions were not in our favor to see, and saw a Twin turbo Pontiac GTO just shy of 1000whp that would have been another good race, but he hung around kasoto and Spring street.... next time I suppose.

I think between driving to and from work and all around I put 120 miles on the car in 1 day, dang.

This Saturday I will be up at a car show just south of Milaca MN, anyone who wants to join is welcome.

WHY IS IT THAT I DID NOT HEAR OF THIS ADVENTURE BEFORE IT WENT DOWN HA! Maybe we should just plant a tracking device on your vehicle so we can all know when some serious mitsu smack down is about to occur ! Good to hear you're enjoying the car though!

You would beat both cars. That gto doesnt hook at all if its the same one brad raced. The tt viper was a black gts with a wing? You should post up when your going out next. Havent raced a fast car yet with the bike.
