I didn't realize until I got back from Lapeer today, I tied Lidio for the best time in Trilogy One! Nice sunny 42 Degree day at Lapeer dragway today, I made 16 runs with Jerry's #1 car. After settling in and getting used to launching with the street tires, the car ran consitantly in the mid 12 second range.
Best runs were:
12.421 @ 110.62 1.89 60 ft time
12.443 @ 109.98 1.90 60 ft time
12.461 @ 111.02 1.91 60 ft time
12.484 @ 109.96 1.94 60 ft time
12.567 @ 110.19 2.03 60 ft time

These runs were on the stock size rims/BFG tires. Jerry had ordered new Nitto Drag radials, but they didnt come in Friday, so stock tires was the result. The cold air really affected this car, once the car launched and hooked up, it was off to the races. The car ran the best I have driven, or seen it run. I can tell you what a difference the 4:10's and the extra pound of boost made over my car. I think the best I have run in my #2 car was 12.98 @ 108.86 MPH. With the weather as cool as it was, if I had the Nittos, Lidio feels like this car would have been down to the low 12.3X's times. I agree!

What a show off. Nice runs on stock tires. I am glad I was there to see it. 12.4's on street tires, WOW! Also nice runs to Tim with a chip reflash. He ran a 14.9 and a 14.6. Not to bad. Here is Dave lining up.

I thought you were going to make it Merc. I wanted to see the old "63" run.

Holy smoke's no big, Milan's to far for me, took us 2 hours to get from their at 55 on the E-way. I can't do that long a distance with my gears, it's a pain in the butt. And the oil pan needs changing out. I think I did find another driver tho.

Nope, just about the same from here I spect.
I knew where you guy's were, I was using Milan from our last experience on the E-way with the Merc.
