Title: Just Got Back From Mission
Post by: Jeremy on August 18, 2007, 12:07:09 AM
Just got back from Mission and had a great time. Well worth the $5 entry. Took my son and my brother. We got there about 6:30 and left about 9:00. It was great to see everyone run their cars hard. The green Pro Mod ran a 10.2x at 133 I think. But looked like it broke an axel later in the night. Awesome car. There was a white street car that ran 11.95 at 100+ and an orange turbo beetle that ran a 12.05 I think. Half the fun was checking out all the cars in the pits and getting up close to see how it all works. Hopefully someone will post names and times soon. I was there for the VW's but some of the other cars like the two older pick-ups that were running fast and that Chevy \"Street\" car that ran an 8.50 were pretty cool too and as outragous as that V8 bug is, it hauls ass. Great VW turn out and great night out. Good show guys.

Did you run your new DOT's?  How much boost were you trying this time?  Atleast all you need is 2 - 3  more pounds boost and you'll be into the 11's.

Good times James.

from what i saw of the run he had some wheel hop at the start and it coughed and sputtered down the track.
i think he definatly will make the 11's
