Finally ran 10s......Is this board DEAD

[88workcar]

First of all, Finally got the 342 done. With the help of a very dear freind who put in three weeks of labor on it for me.

1st trip out, 3.55s and BFGs it went 12.13 @ 118. I missed 2nd 3 times 3rd once and granny shifted it bad to make 1 good pass.

2nd trip, figured out the the 3550 don't go into 2nd over 6000, so I shifted 2nd at 5800, and third at 7000. This netted a 12.83 @ 123 again with 3.55s and crossing in third.

3rd trip, 4.30s, 28 X 10.5s best E.T. was 10.79, had a 10.83 missing 4th, and a 10.92 over revving it (7500) The MPH was a best of 125.8and the 60ft was a 1.43

The car has more in it, I was on pump gas, full exhast, and so nervous it wasn't funny. Its been almost 3 years sence I have been down the track, and never that fast. I had issues every pass. I think that I am gonna go with a C4. I am tired of fighting the shifting. Well needless to say I am happy with my results so far, and the complements at the track are great. Especially when I drive it there.

Now the 2nd topic, WHERE IS EVERYONE? What happened to all the folks that we had here? Are their too many options and detailed areas to where we are all split up. We were a FAMILY. I was down and out for a while, divorce, new house, new job, car not running, but come on where is everyone. I came home to an
empty house.

I am now a lonly old poster from way back that lost all his friend I guess............

1st, Congrats on the successful pass. I vote to stick with the man pedal and work out the bugs, though its hard to argue with the performance/consistency of a modern auto.
2nd, I know how you feel.

Thanks Guys, I am going again this Friday night. Trying to get a good clean pass. Hope so

I think that the board has too many places to go. Too many specific topics. It keeps you from seeing it all, and others from seeing U.

I still lurk in the shadows every once in a while. Trouble for me is I bought a house and have not had the time for the car this year like I have in the past.
