We finally got a set of E/T Streets to run on. This is only my 4th time at the track & my very 1st time on slicks.(Definitely Different)
I was only able to make 2 runs before being kicked out of the track(No Roll Bar) If we had been able to make more runs I think I would have become more comfortable, & we would have been able to dial in the best Tire Pressure & RPM to launch at. Clutch pedal was still sticking in the down position sporatically & I was short-shifting the car around 6200. Although both runs were similar, the better of the two was 11.59 @ 120.60 MPH w/ 1.8 60'. Timeslips are below. The Best MPH on Street Tires we had from a few weeks ago was 123.76 MPH.
We will be re-programming the Stock Computer & replacing the Slave-Cylinder/ Throw out Bering with one from McLeod this week. Hopefully this will help. ??
There is definitely more left in this car.

If anyone can enlarge the slips for me I would appreciate it. Thx.
