Im heading to Englishtown raceway even though there is a good chance of rain in a attempt to enter the 13 second club.
My video girl decided that she would rather spend her Sunday in bed then at a racetrack so I wont have any videos of the event but I will have pictures of my timeslips.
I ran consistant 14.0's in 80 degree heat. Its only going to be 40 today so I know I can improve those numbers.

Time to see if I reached my goal.

ATTEMPT #2
Atco raceway is open all year round, Its a lot farther to get to, but Im on a mission. This sunday Im heading out to try again for my entry ticket into the 13 second club.

Ill try to have this video taped but I will post my results.

Hope you make it Paul. I was looking for the 13.4 or better and only made it to 13.51. The run that it would have made it was in Atlanta and I hit the brakes hard and went thru the traps at 91 mph and a 13.57 with a 13.54 dial in. I am gonna miss the NA racing!

Rub it in!!!

Thanks for the vote of confidence. Im going to try a different lauching technique and play with my tire pressures a bit more.
I dont see a 13.5 in my near future but thanks for giving me another goal to shoot for.

I didnt go to Atco. The Holiday weather would have made the already long drive unbearable. Im planning on going this Sunday but it looks like snow is on the way. Im still going to try to get ot the track before the year is over even if its during Christmas week!
