Default 15.54@94.94mph

Well I finally took mine to the track last night to see what it would do and the best of three runs was a 15.54@94.94mph on a run where I forgot to turn the puck until about halfway through 4th gear. The next run was a 15.7@94mph, missed 3 to 4 shift(had puck on though) Last run was a 21.01 @ 55mph, I got the clutch way to hot trying to launch it and it slipped and wouldn't hold the three times I stood in it in third and fourth gear, so I gave up on that one.

Cool! Good times for your mods. Now you just have to work on them shifts.

Sounds like a clutch may be coming up soon.

no not really, I think there was 4 diesels running that night. It was really crowded with all of the ricers and they had the Jr. dragsters running. Next time we go it will be on a wednesday night, so I can get more runs in without having to sit for so long in between runs.
