Yeah looks like a few backouts. I am leaving the office straight for the track around 545 in Irving. I should get there close to 630 or so. Hurry up, I might be done by the time you get there!

Terrible night at the track. The ambulance had to leave and we sat in the staging lanes for 2 hours. It sucked. So I only got two runs the whole night, plus it was really packed.

1st run I forgot to turn on my boost controller and thought I broke something as I could not get over 12.5 psi so I let off at the 1000 ft mark (3/4 of the way down) and still ran a 14.0.

2nd run I had my tires at 42 psi so I would spin instead of break, but I underestimated the cold humid night making for even worse tire conditions and only had a 2.0 sixty foot and went a 12.6. Last year I had a 1.7 and went 12.8. That makes me know for sure that if I hit a 1.7 or 1.6 I can run 11.8 or 11.9. But they shut it down before I could lower the psi back down. I'll go again in April.

I'd say 2.0 is pretty easy. The tires started spinning when boost hit which was 30 ft out or so. Just because you couldn't get better than a 13.5 even though you have a TME turbo and no interior whatsoever isn't my fault.
