    Rock Falls Results

    Here are my results for 10-14 Rock Falls

    Best ET: 11.21
    Best MPH: 122.11
    Best 60 ft: 1.53
    Best 1/8: 7.17
    Best 1/8 MPH: 96.75

    Ran a string of 1.53 60's, some 1.54's a 1.55, etc. The track was flat out hookin. So much so that I had to put the tire pressure up to near 15 for the last 4 runs. That's when I started taking out some timing and wham! Low 11.20's were the norm. On one run the whole front end came up and the car skipped over a bunch but straightened right out and boogied.

    Best part of the day: After I backed my car off the trailer, I never touched a tool all day. Only opened the hood a couple times. It was just flat out running sweet. Too bad I couldn't make a couple more runs as I know it had some 11.teens in it. The ET's kept dropping as I played with the timing and launch

    I'll let the others post their results as they get home and hop on.

      worst , I am still the 13sec stroker.

      BEst Run all day ,
      RT = .001 ( YES I AM GOOD ON THE TREE HAD A .003 , .007 AND A BUNCH OF .030'S) UM OH YEAH AND 3 RED LIGHTS!
      60FT = 1.861
      1/8 = 8.395
      MPH= 85.65
      1000' = 10.938
      1/4= 13.073
      MPH= 106.75 (THIS IS 2ND BEST MPH CAR HAS RUN)

      So it is what it is, tah tis what a 8.5 TO 1 331 STROKER WITH BIG HEADS AND A SMALL CAM CAN DO IN A 3610# CAR.

      So I am done FOR 2006. Next year it will be same combo with a little added forced induction help

      Was a GREAT DAY and had a blast! Thanks to everyone !

          OH so the chick checkin us in , her name was Jenny, well LES even at 9 in the morning has the charm, so when she says , "DO YOU HAVE A CAR NUMBER? " I respond, " YEAH ITS #1" She smiles puts on my wrist band and says "ORLY" I wink smile back and say " OH YES RLY". So I get car #1 all day.

          Problem is that single numbers are reserved for the BIKES. So all my time slips say , CLASS - BIKE LMAO.

            On the way out, she asked me if my friend had to get back to the ward before 6pm

            She also wondered why he was still wearing his helmet as he left the race track.

                i had a good run with les...too bad i went red on ya, lol...didnt even see the light come on.

                kris let me use the m/t et street radials and they are awesome. i was launching at 5000 and the track was hookin. rf tnt > cf tnt.

                new bests....1.84 60', 12.51, 112 and change. i didnt gain any mph which was wierd, i figured id gain 2 mph or so but no such luck. i did learn one thing...stock clutches dont like sticky tires and 5k dumps, lol. 2nd and 3rd wer having a hard time holding and i think everyone will agree the clutch didnt exactly smell good when i came back to the pits.

                ....another wierd thing is at both tracks my first runs were 12.61s...then the next two runs were messed up by the incompetent driver, then the 4th run was the best of the day...the car has a mind of its own.

                  was fun all around for sure , and it is amazing how close two cars really are even though he was 1/2 second faster. It was like bumper to tail , well almost.

                        Nice air, cold track. Best 60ft 1.85, best mph 121.3+, too bad not on the same run. Ended up with a 11.99@120.22. Spinning in the top of first into second on most runs. Best 1/8 mile mph 95+.1/8 time 7.8. Next year, better tires and some weight reduction.

                          I think Dawns photography was there taking pictures but not positive. If she was I think she got a good pic of mine from the front. No videos or other pics though Whish I would have got a shot of one of my last runs when the front came way up and no one saw it, lol. Damn startled me!!!
