I took the MGM to the track

[ludwigvan968]

So I finally made it out to the track. My friend was suppose to bring me a helmet but ended up not showing up. So I figured I would do some soft launches and see what my trap speeds were. Well that was the plan until I ended up lining up next to a Tunrda talking all this noise and I just figured I would give it a little gas... I figured I would pull a mild 14 second in the 90's, maybe a 15... Well I pulled a 13.2@104.77! The track requires a helmet at 13.99, so that was the only run I got in. I had a .5 reaction time and a 2.1 60', so there is a whole lot of room for improvement. Here is the video:

Nice run, did you spin much off the line? I think that some slicks or at least drag radials might be in your future if you crank up the boost.

Well it is a long story, but basically I thought I was going to go and shoot a bunch of cars and then they all ended up canceling and I ended up going. I wasn't sure what time I would be there or if I would make it at all because I teach that night and I don't like making people wait around. Turned out I got out super early and was able to make it there at a reasonable time. Sorry about forgetting to invite you. Next time!

Very very nice - congrats man. 13.2 is like 2 seconds improvement for you and that car - I know it had the old motor before - but now you can run "as much" boost as you want right?

What did the Tundra run? Looked like he got you off the line then you walked him the whole way.

I can see your own helmet in your future.:beer:
