I am very curious to see what my car is going to do in the quarter. I'll post times when I get back.

They make new pistons every day, so why worry?

13.3 @ 108.5 was my best time. Had problems getting it to hook up, 2.1 60ft

Not bad considering it was my first time at the strip in this car, track prep sucked, and it was over 90 degrees.

I'm from Ohio.

After going to the track a couple times I noticed I would get my best times if I got there early and got to run the car right after getting off the interstate. The engine was warm but not heat soaked.

Yeah, I put down my best time one night, because I had to wait about an hour and a half for a wreck to be cleaned up. Cool engine and intake sure makes a difference!
