1/4 Mile: 12.543 @114.37 MPH

I ran a personal best 12.543 @ 114.37 on pump gas, street tires and JB3 map 7. It was a scorching hot day at Cayuga Dragway (28 degrees Celsius) so the trap speeds were down however the track prep was excellent. I came a little unprepared and was on a full tank of gas so no real opportunity to try race gas.

I made 10 passes, following are the results:

1. 12.543 @ 114.37: 60' 1.975
2. 12.558 @ 115.08: 60' 2.032
3. 12.568 @ 113.59: 60' 1.963
4. 12.587 @ 114.60: 60' 2.006
5. 12.616 @ 115.18: 60' 2.063
6. 12.641 @ 114.29: 60' 2.112
7. 12.687 @ 115.66: 60' 2.184
8. 12.707 @ 112.96: 60' 2.085
9. 12.881 @ 114.48: 60' 2.059
10. 12.911 @ 114.43: 60' 2.195

The car was running pretty darn well and extremely consistent even with the crazy dry heat. I did not try to push any map higher than 7. I also never ran more than 2 consecutives runs without a good 10-15 minute cool down break. I believe I have seen the limits of pump gas in the car.

Next up, weight reduction and race gas with street tires. I will prepare better by getting to the track on an empty tank, add MS109 and run map 9 or 10. I will also be removing my passenger seat and rear seats which should drop another 150+ lbs. I hope this will get me to really low 12s and possibly 11s. I am not giving up until I break into the 11s!

Fun day again, lots of learning and continued progress. Obligatory time slip of the fastest run attached below.
