that 14.7 run was a red lighter :P even have it on tape :P so i think his best was actually a 14.8#-14.9 he should have been able to go quicker considering he was running drag tyres, took off his front and rear wipers, rear spoiler, boot trim, seats, center console, steering colum trim, spare, jack, and pretty much everything else that i was not welded to the car as we as the belt off the A/C and the alternator.... .. even so 14.8 was faster than anyone i know of on the day... Alternator belt was still on.. But A/C and P/S belts were off.. He races the car in that trim all the time.. and since he's competeting in the minijam its pointless for him to run the car any other way... consistancy is key.. Dunno what your guys prob is with the tires...they are completely street legal... just more or less there to save his street tires from getting chewed to hell (like mine are following his burnout in my car...grr).. According to him, his best launches were on street tires way back when... He's pretty serious about it all though.. when there is prize money on the line i guess you've gotta be... if he had of put it down in street trim it might well have stuffed him up for the minijam, with the car responding differently to how he thought it would etc... But all that aside, was an awesome time... we'll have to do it again sometime..on a quieter night (that is, not on a night before a major drag meet..) I enjoyed beating a V8 down (yeh yeh, he over powered the wheels and did a 21sec pass where he shoulda done an 11 second pass..but a wins a win!!!!) The Jet cars were awesome...especially at the end of hte night where one of them nearly exploded..heheh... fuel leaks = not good in a jet car.. There was also a top fuel dragster that had some grief at the end of the night... was pretty well stuffed as it staged..so the guy flogged it down the track and by the end i think he was running on around half his cyls, with all sorts of crap flying out the header.. Anyway, was great meeting up with you guys ... hopefully next time more drivers will put their cars down the track (i think you guys had about 4 running, we had about 6.... we had about 15 ppl saying they were gunna race, guess people chicken out when it actually comes to sacking up and doing it..) Cya all at the next race =) all we wanted was a level playing field, that really wasn't the case but anyways i cant wait till the track day cause he can even take out the kitchen sink and it wont make SFA diff :P
