It was a great night last night, 98 cars showed up, and the weather was really nice. It was chilly, but not too cold, and the track prep was pretty good. I got a bunch of good pictures and videos, but I will let John put up what he wants.
Here are some highlights:
My buddy Brandon in his SRT4 finally reached his MPH goal of breaking 120. He went 121.7 on street tires. Nice run buddy!
Jeeves pulled consistent 11.8’s last night.
The light blue S4 up here in Roch went 11.90 for the first time, but his MPH was great! He doesn’t launch the car because it’s his daily driver, but he managed to trap almost 127 mph a bunch of runs. When it comes to street roll racing, this thing is pretty quick :tup:
The Puerto Rican guys with that little rotory Toyota pulled a bunch of 11.1’s and did BIG first gear wheelies and even pulled them again in second. That car is pretty awesome! I know a few of them, and was helping one guy decide on running megasquirt on his new T76 turbo :eekdance:
This dragster went low 7’s @ 130 mph, it was insane.
An f-body race car with the similar hood that John has on his car, but the wide version, went I think 8.2 @ 178. That car was siqq. They dragged the track for him and then John was able to run right inback of him, so the track prepped helped a lot.
John did some decent sized 6 speed, street tire wheelies last night :eekdance:
just to set the record straight…
it was fun last night!
edit: before i get flamed for the short times, my brand new clutch slips between my drag radial burn out and the launch for the run; so thats to much power for the cold tires with a green driver.
haha the camera was set for 30fps that why it looks so bad zoomed in, its always bad at night on zoom anyway.
none of brandon, shockwave took these with the new hood, the other night.
You can hear your car free-rev really bad on the first run in the dark. After every shift your clutch was slipping.
On the DR it was pretty consitent. Two 11.44, 11.41, 11.40 this was the best.
it yanked the wheels a little bit
I thought it was spinning thu the gear, a bit after the shifts. Figuer it was just normal for a M6 car on a DR? But it was probally the clutch slipping, now watching the vids. And on the drag wheels the clutch was slipping bad.
Here is the best ET (full pass). That 60’ kinda sucks I was hoping for alot better but the car wasn’t going anywere with the clutch slipping.
GREAT TIMES!
Now post the slips in the 2009 drag race thread!
Ugh I need another f-body.
that shit sucks
11.3 on street wheels I drive on 24/7, then only a 11.1 and a 11.22 or some shit that last run.
I’ll see about this clutch. This is it’s 3rd or 4th year now
LOL so what post them up, all of you dickbags! Then if/when you get better times edit your original post.
I am not going to bother posting the vid but I feel ya on the clutch man. When I went to the track I had to modulate the throttle in 3-4th for it to grab haha.
thats all I got, the only to passes on drag wheels this year (last 2 in the vid)
Last year best on street wheels was a 11.63 @122 at the street car shootout. Gleson has nice vid in HD on his vismeo page.
Impressive time’s for dr’s:)
does it get busy thre on friday nights?
An RIT kid, there are two of them around here.
hopefully my beast can go up soon. It’s out and about right now just have to do all the nitrous wiring. :tup: Nice times boys.
Real nice times studderin.
Pat let me know when your ready to go up ill bring my pile out to.
thanks, can’t wait to rip some good 60’s off
new clutch is in, did some launch tonight feels great. Its fun with it griping, it yanks the car alot on shifts.
you coming out tomorrow?
i found some substantial boost looks at my #4 injector and hot side charge pipe at my IC, im definitely going back tomorrow if the weather is legit.
i’d like to go but work by day and school by night has been kicking my ass. i haven’t even been able to wash my car since last friday, and it hasn’t moved in 5 days 
holy shit, if you go ill pay ur way into the track so i can see/hear ur car run.
edit: if you take me down for one run
