Went to the local track here to run the car to see if I could improve on the times but someone ran over the sensors and basically messed them up and so no times were given. I was pretty bummed but still paid the $7 to race.
Well first race of the night was against one of the new guys to the club. He has a 87 Camaro with a LG4 in it. Flowmaster muffler, Performance Products dual plane intake manifold, a K&N and a MSD 6AL box w/Accel Distributor. Raced 2 times and pretty much hammered him by at least 5 cars. Great guy through, if you are out there Patrick it will only get better bud!!!
Next race was against a Integra an older 90-91 model. Not very fast and beat him worse than I beat Patrick.
Next race was with a Lincoln Mark V. Kid was talking big...said he had a multi angle cam??? What the hell is that? Whatever. Got him from the get go and pretty much stayed ahead by 2 car lenghts.
Next was another fellow club member with a 6 speed 2002 WS6. Hahahaha KILLED......he killed me of course, lol. No BS here damn LS1's :hail: LS1. Oh and he is stock and running 13.0's here with a cut out, Tornado fan. He is in the 12's sealevel wise.
Sunday night is open street racing here in El Paso at Desert Demons. No times just a pro light and thats it.
Raced only 2 times because the line to race gets wayyyy to big. Raced another club member with a 78 Z28 with a 300hp crate motor, Flowtech afterburner headers, Comp Cam I forget which one and 3.42 gears.
first race he slept a little on the line and I got the lead and didn't look back. Win by 1 1/2 car lengths.
Last race of th night with him again. I slept a tad and I still got him off the line but in the end his top end was too much for the LB9 and he caught up at the end and got me by 1 car lenght(just about and pullling.
So all in all a good couple of nights for me. I do need help in the top end department other than that the low end is dependable. Bye

 

Nice action you had there. Track nights are always so fun, win or lose.

 

Had the timing system worked, what sort of times would you expect to run?

 

The best I have done at the other track, we have 2, is 14.9@93mph. At the track we were at I had the same ET but with a 92mph. He has hit a best of 14.8's. I am betting that he hit somewhat better than that on our second pass.
