    Smokie your rule of thumb works for my first two runs, +~21mph

    Then on run three its +22.9mph with the brake torque & stock wheels
    Run 10 was +25.81mph with race gas and light wheels.
    Run 12 +23.44mph

    this is ignoring the 107mph slip, it appears my car has a hell of a second wind in third gear.

    Wes,

    Low 14s are some nice numbers. May I ask what mods you've done to your car besides the SCT and tires? I'm dying to hit the local track here, but I haven't had the time yet.

    TIA.
    -Mike

    Who all went? I've been the lucky recipient of "mild" food poisoning, and have been stuck at home for the last two days... Didn't even want to get out of bed yesterday, and felt it would be a bad move to go out, today...

    Wesman, did you ever run it stock? I know you were around 14.7, with just gears and tune.

    Now back to the topic at hand
    That's a nice place. It's right downtown and is very close to a number of the city's nicer attractions. There's also a bunch of bars / restaurants on the same street, very close to you.

    BTW - I work less than a 10-minute walk away from there.

    There's better times to play than when you're ill, we'll catch you next time. CanadaSVT and I did a side by side, there is a tape of it somewhere! We drove through a monsoon on the way home and there was snow on the 401 in Ingersoll!!!!

    Cool

    Had a great time. Best time was 15.2 bone stock except for the slip-in K&N air filter. I have the tape of Wesman side by side with me. I had him at the lights, but by 60ft he was gone. Can certainly here Wesman's Kooks doing their job on the tape!
    I just need to figure out how to get tape from camera to pc

    Yes it was a good time. Some of the wildest weather I have driven through to get home. Sun, torrential rain, & snow!
