Default New best

Went to Capital today. Beautiful weather. Ran a new best MPH, ET, and 60'. The DA was nowhere near as good as my previous best. TJ, Hawkn01 ran his best bolt on time when I ran 14.68. Changes from last year: Corsa cat back, LineX, and a Covermaster hard tonneau. Probably at least 100 lbs heavier than last year. The difference is the Grannyshifting tune. Got my first 2.0 60', but I hot lapped and ran 14.90. Let the truck cool down, and ran the 14.65 @ 93.18 mph. I'm happy with that. Daily driver that gets 18.5 mpg, and hauls my house stuff.

Was that on street tires? I wish I could pull off a 2.0 60 ft. Nice time.

Sweet! I wish I would have known Capitol was open today, I would have like to make a few passes myself. I put my 20's back on this week so I'd be happy with a 14.anything pass on the motor.
