 Posted: Thu Jul 12, 2007 2:09 am Post subject: WSID REACTION TIME TONIGHT!! |
 |
|
I am speechless.I won $960 dollars tonight by getting a .0000 reacton time at wsid.
Pb's did not happen for me because my tyre pressure gauge was wrong and I ran 10 psi causing too much drag except for the last run when the score boards packed it in but not before giving me 60 footer,330 footer and 660 foot. Judging from this my wagon was on course to run a 14.6 or 14.5 or even better |

What colour was your car mate?
The track was terrible that night.But then I found out my tyre pressure gauge was fauly and wobbled dangerously forcing me to hit the brakes half way.When it rtead 16psi it was actually 6psi.No wonder I couldnt get a pb before that.Try getting a pb with totally flat tyres. |

Lower is definitely not always better.....they probably would have been cupping pretty badly at that low pressure, making the contact patch crap.
Would have been hard to heat the tyres up properly as well.
0.000 is a seriously cool r/t.....coffee power!!!
Keep at it Stav. Get it right on the night, and that wagon will run a very good number  |
