pass 1: gf was in the car with me

60ft: 2.12
330ft: 6.18
1/8mile: 9.52
1/8mph: 74.59


pass 2: alone

60ft: 2.1
330ft: 6.09
1/8mile: 9.35
1/8mph: 76.13

Nice runs. You'd be closer to a 9.1 at sea level. That's what I like about Maryland International Raceway. It's barely 20ft above sea level.

They let you go down the track with a passenger???

All the tracks I've gone to don't allow a passenger. I've been wanting to take my wife for a drive down the track. Lucky you! lol

My wife wants to race the Stang. It would be awesome cause then we could take both cars to events and race them. She's just not familiar with how the track procedures work but she's learning just from watching. She's proven she can handle the car on the street (more than once), she just needs to learn the track.

*EDIT* Nevermind I just looked at your garage. I bet its tough to get hooked up with those 4.10's. Does your 3rd gear carry you all the way? My 3rd gear seems good to about 87 and I have 3.73's.

What gears are you running? I just ran this past week and got consistent 8.9's/ I'm just curious to all your mods.

car should run a lot better at a lower altitude, hoping for a 9.0 run in dallas next time im out that way.

i have a 2step set at 3500 and the car hooks up just fine. 3rd gear runs till about 80mph so im fine there. the biggest thing i have against me right now is that im a vert... its heavier and flexes a lot more than a coupe.
