Speedworld Dragway (Wednesday, April 16th)

[red]

If anyone is interested, I'm planning to head to Orlando Speedworld Dragway on Wednesday (April 16th). Gates open at 6:00pm. The temps are supposed to be in the mid to low 60's with no chance of rain. I'll add a poll to this thread if there's interest.

I went to that track countless times while I was in college. Not with my own car of course, I was broke in college, and worked 40 hours a week, and didn't have a car to race. I would go with some of my friends that had cars. Lots of fun though, brings back great memories. Hope you have fun, and run the numbers you're hoping for!

Good luck.

Didn't get a new best ET, though I'm still getting 3+ degrees of timing retard. I'll be perfecting the tune over the next few months and will hopefully hit a new best ET in the Fall. With that said, I did get new personal bests for the 60' and 1/4 mile MPH. 60' was a 1.882, and the MPH was 100.56.

Nice numbers! a 1.88 60' is awesome N/A. You're running a race trim wheel/tire combo, right? Our numbers are pretty close, as well as our mods. I believe you have a bit more done than I do though. Congrats on mid 13's. That's a very respectable N/A time for a car this big.

Thanks! Yes, the 1.882 is on drag radials. On street tires I was running low to mid 1.9's, best of 1.927. More info here (http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?t=43187).
