It was a fun night overall although a bit frustrating as I was having a lot of issues with ignition cutting off whilst in 3rd or 4th gear every single run...

Managed to get in a total of 5 runs with my best time so far on the 5th and final run of 12.875 @ 112.43mph, 2.185s short. Trap speeds were really poor in general over the night due to the ignition issues and that definitely also affected my times . As a comparison, last time I went out my best result was 13.033 @ 118mph. 2.1 short.

I did also manage to get my best 0-100kph time so far though of 3.89 seconds recorded on the P3 vent gauge . The only strange thing was this didn't seem to correlate with a better 60ft as my short on that run was still only around 2.1s. If anyone has any insight as to why that is I'd be interested in hearing it.

I got 5 runs as well, and went from best to worst. On the way home I did some more launch testing and realised I was being to aggressive on subsequent launches. I need to walk the car off the line more.

I was after a 12, and managed a 12.999 at 107mph with a 1.985 60foot. The mph is lower than last time.

I reckon there is a tenth or 2 in it still.

Managed to beat a F6 310 typhoon and almost got hit by an XR6 almost crossing the centreline.

I have video of my fastest run and the xr6.

I can't go next week as I remembered they told me my hemlet is out of date :-( and I can't be bothered getting a new one!

I want to see this video of the XR6 from your POV, cause it was pretty crazy from mine LOL. Should have heard the commentator hahaha. Make sure you upload it.

You should just come next week anyway. Just pretend no one said anything the first time haha.

Hey Kenny,

Would you mind updating the first post with some new entries? I figure it would be nice to add in some new cars and get some friendly competition going again! I'm sure there are quite a few guys who wouldn't mind getting added, Moe, Steve, Steve, Thony, Byron etc

I'll enter my result first I guess since I finally managed to get under 13s. This was by no means an optimal run as had some ignition cutoff issue in 4th gear which would have affected my ET and trap speed but it is my best run so far regardless

12.875 @ 112.43 MPH Short: 2.185 Alex Wong (froop) 135i Coupe MT (3452 lbs). Wheels/Tyres: Forgestar F14 18"/Federal 595RSR 255/35/18. Diff: Stock. Mods: Tune(Procede), FBO, Methanol. 19 June 2013

I can't make it tomorrow. Im in QLD for a week. It's 5 degrees warmer there and that's good enough for me.
I'll be keen to go on July 10th.
