Josh, are you still planning on going to TVD on Saturday if the weather cooperates? Forcast shows 40% chance of rain at the moment.

 

[JoshK]

I have plans to leave here around noon and get up there about 3. I have been watching the forecast

Kinda fun being able to do it legally and in a safe environment. At least it is for me. Let's see that 10.xx!

 

[JoshK]

11.27 @ 135mph was the best pass. Loaded up already. Going home in one piece is a win for me. The real track guys can disect the timeslips when i post them later on.

 

[Hiltsy845]

Hope you had fun. MPH is awesome! Time for some ET Street bias ply or Hoosier QTP?

 

[weather man]

Glad the weather held up!

 

[JoshK]

Here are the only two time slips that are worth posting. The first was with 20psi in the tires and the second was with 17. I don't believe I was actually making full boost on the second run either since when I unloaded the car this morning I have a BIG exhaust leak on the drivers side somewhere. I would know better if I were logging, but my pos laptop needs a new battery.

 

[BruceH]

Josh,

Were you able to get as many passes in as you wanted?

 

[JoshK]

I wouldnt have minded trying it a few more times. I believe I messed up the exhaust some when trying to load the car and that is the curprit of the exhaust leak. I will know more when i get the ambition to work on the car again. I also didnt charge the battery before I went and hadnt drove the car for two weeks. With the multiple start and off again between loading the car and between runs I ran the battery down.

Nice Josh!! You get that 60ft down and you'll break into the 10's easily!

Nice Josh!! You get that 60ft down and you'll break into the 10's easily!

Looks like you had some fun Josh.
