Well, it was a fun, albeit chilly, night tonight. Glad I went up. Good to see the guys who showed.

Nice meeting some of the EvoM guys.
Mr Turco- Congrats on the 12.9 run you were looking for!
Ryan- I told you those tires were junk.

Like all will tell you, it was relatively cold out, spinning out of control from the hole.
My best was a 12.3@111 with a 1.9 60'

I did not get what I was looking for, and I am also done for the year.

Was nice meeting you guys tonight. My tune has more issues than Britney Spears right now so I'm glad I have all winter to sort things out. Launching SUCKED tonight, best I could do all night was a 1.882 60' (which was my best run of 12.2@113mph)and that was baking the tires past the 60' mark. Car decided to get knock in random places on each run so its hard to adjust when the problem kept moving. Pulled 7* of timing through most of 4th gear on my best run.

Next year I'll have warmer weather, better launches back in the 1.6's, knock free tune and hopefully some more bolt-ons. I really need a FMIC and piping damnit....maybe an evo IX turbo
