Run 288 @ 10:00:57 Friday 7/12/02, Richmond Dragway

I dunno what the elevation is or the temp that night, but I would guestimate it was in the 70's

Reaction 1.2304 (yeah baby if your gonna be good at something be the best! if only I can get a 1.5000 that'll make me 3 times slower than the tree

)
60 ft. 2.4040
1/8 ET 9.5567
1/8 MPH 76.84
1/4 ET 14.5954
[b]1/4 MPH[b] 98.21

I forgot to cut off the traction control, but I lined up and reved to about 1800-2200 rpm (somewhere in that zone) let off the clutch and nailed it (didn't dump it). I shifted at about 5800 to 6000 rpm in each gear.

After my launch I scrambled to cut off the traction control so I might have hung in 2nd gear to long or maybe not, I can't remeber?.

This friday I plan on launching about the same without the traction control (other than maybe the drag radials

) and speed shifting. The prior run was made with granny shifting (well quick granny shifting). I also think instead of flooring the clutch pedal on the line I'm gonna press just enough to stop the car from moving. As for mods. the only thing I'm gonna between now and friday is to seal the airbox to the fender somehow?
