Finally in the 10's!

Hey guys! Long time no see!

Well I finally had a chance to hit the track for the first time this season on the new combo. I sold the Red earlier this year and have moved on to the 3065. Goal has been 10's since the shootout but I have been having some issues that up until last month were not resolved.

Today was the perfect weather for a track rental and probably the best Ive seen in years.. It was sunny 80 with a nice breeze. Started out the day with a scare when I killed a set of plugs on my second pass.

The night before I reminded my buddy to setup the anti lag however when I got to the track I found out he forgot and of course he was in CT and I was in NY. So I had to actually launch my car old school style, imagine that.

On my fifth pass I got my first 10 second pass:

60ft- 1.605
MPH- 129.15
1320- 10.916

I went several times after but kept having a horrible 1-2 shift. After going three times in the left lane I decided to change over to the right lane which would end up being my last pass of the day. Launched it hard and had my best 1-2 of the day. The results were:

60ft- 1.564
MPH- 118.81
1320- 10.80

I was very pleased with my results. We only have two events left that we plan to make, the Ohio shootout and the Etown shootout. Hopefully I can work it down to mid 10's once the anti lag is hooked up.

Im very excited to finally be over that hurdle. :)

Honestly everyone keeps asking me that and i have no answer except maybe I started driving. :)

Re: Finally in the 10's!

Good job. You know you owe me a ten second car.

Re: Finally in the 10's!

That low of trap usually is something like a missed shift or hitting the brakes at the lights. My pathetic 11.9 best was only at 118 mph, since it took me three tries to get it into fourth.

Congrats on the 10, they're not easy to get.
