still slower than the all motor 408 baby!! :D

congrats on the new best matt, now go ahead and throw a dam auto in there and haul some serious ass!!

[GARS04]

He's FAST enough but still not QUICK enough for the bone stock 600. :D

I dont know how much more practice a guy needs but when he finally gets that thing going like it should, he will bump many people on the list. He plays the fetching game really good.

LOL, Well to be honest Rich, my problem is honestly, that I hate practicing, I like to run new combos, and everytime I go to the track, I am getting much faster (606-647-704+ are last three trips to track), just not used to the car in time. I know that isn't the way to do things, but since I don't have any tires of my own, I like to raise the HP bar each time to see how I do. Yesterday sucked, the track wasn't prepped for damn, and I think with some air less than 90 degrees, this thing is going to be stupid on the top end...

My best pass was a 10.95 @ 136.4

My first pass was a 11.25 @ 136.7 since it was only about 85 then...:rolleyes:

Fucken ghetto ass HEAT, it is October for Christ's sake, can we have some 50s yet?:(

Fred, I am working on it... I am tired of the fucken ghetto ass Tremec.;) Give me a few months...

It was good meeting you too Mike, it was too damn hot yesterday though.:(

I did get second in my class of 10.5 inch tire and smaller.
:D

Gratz on 10's Matt. I'm sure once you take it out and the weather is cooler and you have a better prepped track, you will see some even lower times!

I was spinning in second gear on every pass my foot touched the floor. The 10.95 pass, I didn't floor it till about 70 mph, then I shifted right as I got to the floor in second. It was a shitty situation for sure. Andrew told me last time he was there he was slip sliding away too, maybe it is prepped nicely for slower cars, hell if I know.

[Boss Hogg]

STROKD's excuses so far...
1. just not used to the car in time
2. the track wasn't prepped for damn
3. Fucken ghetto ass HEAT
4. fucken ghetto ass Tremec
5. I was spinning in second gear on every pass my foot touched the floor

:p

[O2BQIK]

In only 1 thread! Is that a record?

[Saladbar]

Damn Matt... You barely beat me w/ an extra 220+ rwhp :p ... Gimme my spot back!

Bah... I'll just take it back this friday @ Ennis then ;)

[SLOW 77]

[dragradialstang]

the first pass was a 7.5 @ 105 with a 1.87 60 foot.:(

I ran a 7.7 @ 104 too on a 11.4 pass.:o

Aw well, we all know the car is slow.

Weight was 3,350 with me in it.:)

My last pass I ran a 1.75 60 foot, and the car left hard for my junk, and It locked out of second.:( That F-in sucked.

The pass before that I ran a 11.2 @ 135 missing third because I tried to shift to fast. At least that was my fault and not the trannies.:o

I will have to back him up on this one. He was spinning pretty good out of the hole. Not sure if it was all the tracks fault, but he was spinning. The track was hooking good enough to break 5 different trannies that day, including mine. GRRRRRR

It did get pretty hot out there in the afternoon.

Damn Mike that sucks, I was wondering why I was following your car after my first pass.:(

I was leaving at 1,000 rpm less than at Redline and still spinning!:mad:

Well it looked like as the day progressed it got slicker. I guess do to a lot of the cars there were running radials or drag radials.

Had to have been, I wish I could have run earlier in the day, we just didn't get there early enough (11AM), and then I had to re clearance my fenderwells to not rub on the slicks for fear of a blow out.:( So my first pass I think was last call before Elims, and it was about 12:30 or so, already damn hot, and slick.:mad:

[Evile753]

congrats matt ....:D

i'll show you the video.....when i see you....
