I finally went to the track yesterday. It was barely above freezing so traction was non existant. We drove through a snow storm to get there...anyways here are the pics.







I bet in the summer when the track is tacky I can pull a wheel.


Me vs my friends turbo GP


My best time was 13.6 @102 with a 1.93 60' time. I bet I can run better in the warmer weather. The motor is basically just a stock headed 306 with a trickflow cam, weiand intake and a holley carb.

Looks good, 102 was good for 13.1-13.2s for me on a stock suspension!

Air down those tires... I dont see any wrinkle in the sidewall. You really dont want it as bad as my avatar, but air them down to get a good contact patch!

Yeah, slicks take some practice. If it doesnt hook a good thing to do is drop the pressure. Another good idea is check and set the pressure right before the pass if possible. I usually start around 13, and go down from there. The avatar pic was 9-10 psi I think!

Just keep at it and in warmer weather expect some 1.7s all day long!
