    Took the GTP to the track for the 1st time this year.

    Went down to NYIRP (now Empire Dragway) with Mike. Brought both the GTPs. I didn't beat any PBs. However, came EXTREMELY close to beating my 60' record.

    ****Mind you...all these runs were made with an air temperature was sitting just a hair above 90* most of the evening.****

    Best run of the night..........

    R/T...... .877
    60'....... 1.970
    330...... 5.626
    1/8...... 8.679
    MPH..... 81.31
    1000.... 11.307
    1/4...... 13.518
    MPH..... 99.48


    All my times were consistant 13.5's - 13.6's and traps ranged from 99-101mph on all those.

    Overview of my bests for the night

    Best ET 13.518
    best 60' 1.958 (my PB 60' in this car is 1.951 down at Bradenton Motorsorts Park in Florida)
    best trap 101.49mph
    best R/t .562


    Mike did fairly well tonight too in his GTP.....Ironically his Best of the night was also a 13.518 (wich is a new PB overall for him in that car)

    We did go againsed each other for a few runs....cars were pretty much dead even. (basically whoever got the better launch won) lol

    A... It was 91 degrees all evening.....times will suffer greatly because of that (especially without an IC)
    B... I did forget to mention that all my runs were made with the 3.4'' pulley NOT the 3.3''

    I did the other day.......but I was not going to run it in the 90* heat. I dont have any valvetrain work yet. I can get away with it if the air temps are below 75 and not humid.
