Well, here we go:
1st pass
13.0898 @ 100.49mph/1.86 60'(80º weather)
2nd pass
13.1692 @ 101.10mph/1.95 60'(71º weather)
3rd pass
13.1790 @ 101.24mph/1.97 60'(63ºweather)

I really wanted to break the 12.99 sec. barrier but maybe next time. Just a little disappointed but I did win the burnout competition!!!LOL!!! Paid $200.

I know how it feels to be so close but still great times for you!

So you got a $200 trophy for burning off $100 worth of tires and no video??

Nice job James. Oh so close to the 12's Don't sweat it, it'll happen. Just a few tweaks and your there. Was the truck hooking at the start or were you getting wheel spin?

The truck hooked good on the 13.0 pass when the temp was 80º. I think the track lost it's stick'em as it got cooler. I spun adout 50'-100' on the last two passes. I know there's a 12sec pass in her.

Hey, you can call me if you want.............
