Did you get on the track Ron? Hows the car, OK?


Title: Re: Shakey/Avon Park this weekend just gone - how did you get on?
Post by: Rocket Ron on November 03, 2009, 10:25:39 am
Cars ok thanks and ran well at the week end.

I ran a 13.74 at 96.5 mph on my first and only run, with a bit of a pussy start off the line,I think my 60 ft was something like 1.96 :-[

I think there would have been a 13.5 in there somewhere if the weather held out but I wanted to run a 13.99 with all the bumpers trim and seats etc still in place by the end of this year so I'm happy

Plans are afoot for next year  ;)

12's here we come  :D

I ran a 12.2@107, which is just off my pb but now the car has a full Jim Smith cage so was dead happy with that.

Plans over the winter will help me achieve my 11 second goal

i swear there is more conventional ways to save weight than literally disposing of it as your going along ;D

All looked good coming out of the burn out box , yes you heard right Martin actually engaged the line lock and warmed up "my slicks"
