I can't go to the track tonight but I might be able to hook up for the pre-track meet if it is north Dallas. If you guys get together, post when and where and I will check from work to see if I can make it. Cheers!

yeah, I'll send you the high resolution version later tonight, or early tomorrow morning (depending on your perspective), in the meantime, hopefully this will suffice.


Looking at it again, I must say this is some nice work, Mike.

No, not yet, he wanted to see them first. They were suppost to arrive today, but all that icy weather put UPS behind, so I hope I'll be getting them Mon.

that was my first & best run...

I don't know why, but I always have my best run the first time down the track, and I can never do better the rest of the night,

the others were 14,722, 14.725, and 14.602

you're up early. That's funny, cause last time I went, my runs got better each time. 14.9xx (experimenting with feathering the throttle), 14.7xx, 14.7xx, and 14.639.

when you called me and told me it was deserted I was thinking about heading up there, then I remembered I had just filled my tank. Which wasn't a very good idea, cause if I go next week, I'll still have like half a tank.

WOW!!! That is one fast pass, Mantis. I wish I had gone, now. With conditions like that, I could have dropped into the high 14.7s for sure!!!

Congratulations, Mantis.

Congratulations, Mantis.
I think you can do much better than 14.7s. That night was just practice. Headers and ice box should get you around mantis' time.

I am sooooo excited about the wheels...

I called Lone Star Performance and they are ready to do a dyno again. I didn't mention if it would be a big group or just a couple of us. I really want to get down there and get a result to post.

Danny, there will be lots of time to go racing. I just need to get in while I can. My Fridays are not always free.

Mantis' time still is out of this world considering he has 19s, subs, and that damn jazz playing all the time...
