Damn I love this car. Bring on the Whipple!

God Damn that car is consistent--what a bracket car! Wonder what your car would run with Ted driving.

Like I said in the other thread---easy 11's with the whipple.....

 

[Clay]

WOW!!! That is some consistent driving!

 

[US-1]

Damn....deadly consistent.

 

[don_w]

Way to go, Bret!! And like the others said, that is one consistent machine. Perfect for bracket racing.

Damn I love this car. Bring on the Whipple!

Just be forewarned, your consistency "might" suffer a little after you get blown, but since you'll be in the 11s, you won't care too much. haha

Good shit, man. Do you guys give racing lessons...I think I could use some...

No...you don't have the legs for it.

I think I have pretty nice legs.

I would probably have a good 1/8th then here a BIG noise as I forgot to shift it back into "D"rive Also I would have the tops down.. ITs almost summer!! ahhhhh.. I want Vert!

 

[jsawyer]

Wow Stanley, you can just stay home next time because you know the number you are going to run lol

There you go f'ning up with that "thinking" shit again.

 

[freebass55]

It's my downfall, what can I say...

 

[Charlie Sheen]

Thanks guys. A little tech (?) info...

Prior to that night, I had only dipped into the 12s twice (on two seperate occasions). I used some of Lostsoul's MAF cleaner (car has 64k on the clock) and had a pretty good night. Hopefully I'll get the shorties on tomorrow and make one last N/A night of it.

I am thinking the DA was just better that night. If I remember, you were sooo close to running 12's before that night--normally 13.0X somethng right? DA can easily make a 1/10th difference---especially since it wasn't just one fluke pass, it was all of them.

 

[stkjock]

congrats! very nicely done.

Yes & No I guess... Before that night, I had never grouped all the ET's that tightly. And this was the first rain delay I endured. Even though they had several lanes of cars do a 10MPH parade lap I knew the track was going to be wet at the line. I tried to carry my burnout all the way up to the line, maybe I fell a little short, but I still didn't run a crappy throw-out 13.5+ like I did the other two nights I had hit the 12s.

Awesome times Stanley, that consistency is outstanding.
