well Just got back. Got 2 runs in the rained on us. They all sucked Cause I built boost to quick and red lighted. First run ran a 13.8 and the second run ran a 13.7 !! These are my best times yet. Still working on my 4wd luanch but got a best 60 ft. time of 1.9 Im pretty happy with what I got so far. I think I can still do better and Meth probably wouldn't hurt. Can I be in the 13 second club now???

Still got a little ways to go to catch my "little" 4.8

When I saw you where going to the track, I almost when down there (had the afternoon off) But Then I checked the weather and it looked like it might rain and 3 hours is too far to drive to sit in the rain . I will be in Payton Thus-Monday though helping a friend with building her deck.

Red lighting only disqualifies you in bracket racing or competitive drag racing and has no effect on your 1/4 mile times.

Nice times man, that's moving in the mountains there!

This is just converting it to a track at sea level, NOT a DA of 0ft

It would be around a

12.74@104.5

I would STILL be a couple tenths and a few more mph faster if the DA=0.

yeah i noticed last time i ran in 2wd i had a slower 60ft. slower 1/4 but higher mph. I think the 4wd really robs me of mph. when i hit the 2wd button it doesn't come out till third gear. I might need to lift to get it out in second. Not sure what the truck with me weighs, but im about 225, i had a full tank, had the gate and spare on. Next time I'll try not to eat for a day.
