Man... I have just about every supporting mod you do except manifold/o2. And was trapping 5mph less and .7 sec less in the 1/4. I wonder what gives... btw mine was the bby 8 on gold volks. Also- my 60' was 1.9 on my best run.

On a good day I have done 118 in the 1/4. Not too sure where my head has been but my launches have been horrible. I either get anxious and red light or let them RPM's drop along with the lights. Not good!! Also, will somebody please remind me to not fill up with 93 next time I plan on running. I had 5 gallons of race fuel and got maybe a few drops in. I did everything I could to burn it on the way but had no luck.

The low 12's look like some decent runs. I would hope to have been in that range myself. I am surprised to see the 14's in there. It sounds like everyone was a bit off from their bests. Might have been a bad track condition/weather night for times.

Glad to see everyone had fun and it was a mustang that broke not an Evo. I hope to be able to come to future events...

Wanted 12s so bad.... but it was my first time to race at the track ever. and it happen to be with the evo. I went 4 times and couldnt get better than a 1.9...

int/tbe
280/272s

If you need a driver that knows that car, let me know. I am sure I can get it back in the 12's for you. With the big turbo it had before, it ran a..... well I don't want to really say, but the big rig I got now runs a pretty impressive number as well.

Nice time none-the-less. The twin disc will grab, I promise!

Damn andy, you still alive? I ain't heard from you in quite some time. Car still running good? It is amazing how a 'stock' evo will run.
