Who Ran What At Mission?

(1/3) > >>

silas:
i was pissed that i was stuck at work when i shoulda been at the drag races watching the aircooled eat everything they went up against.

just curious as to who was there, how many and what the times were? any pb's? hows the 2332 gav? geoff or k-roc bust off an 11 yet?

Billyisgr8:
Geoff ran a 12.22 @ 108,

He will get to the 11 something  soon


Gavin ran a 13 something@ 100  ( can't remember)  

And the other new to drag racing guy ( can't think of his name as I never introduced myself) in a drag only bug ran a 14.8 something.  

There was only 3 bugs there.

Geoff will fill in the rest, as I could probably type all night and tell all, but He is the one with the big grin who won't sleep much tonight.

Andrew Holliday:
Gavin hit 12's later! I think!

Geoff:
It was a hot night out a Mission, All i gotta say is i need to get the AC fixed in the Impala. Sitting in the line up for 1 hour in 30+ weather was killing me.

It was packed out there with other events going on this weekend including the car club weekend so many more spectators were out.

Gavin had a few line loc problems but managed to get the tires warm enough.
Congrats are in order for gavin as he is now a official "100mph member" and ran his first 12 sec pass. 12.90 @ 101 mph! Gavin, now it's time for you to get your own slicks back on. By the way, why are you using my slicks when you have a brand new set? Maybe we should trade;-)

"Racing Jason" was out with his 2110 beetle and ran a best of 14.9? at 87mph (correct me if im wrong.

For me,

First time back to the track this year and the car ran it's best time yet. First pass spun the tires all the way thru 1st and didn't feel right in the higher RPM. It ran a 13.37 @108mph

Next pass did a timing change, launched and it started to pull the wheels and poped out of gear, Dam! Got going again but ran a 14.53 @ 106.91

Third pass ran the tires down to 12psi from 15 and did a big burn out thru the lights. Launched and spun the tires again but not as bad. 1.60 60ft (last year i would get 1.50 60ft time and time again.
But the good news was it felt strong and ran a 12.22 @ 108.93 and it feels like there is more in it!

At the rate the Top 20 is going this may only be good to just squeeze in this year. One week to Seattle Bug Nationals and i'm stoked!

Stephan Schmidt:
gavin hit a 12.94 at 100+ MPH in the 1.4 mile!
