New best not trying lol

I went to atco at the last minute with the t/a. I wasn't expecting a new best. I didn't even prep the car lol. I still had 3/4 a tank of gas, full interrior, and my street tires up front. I did slap the slicks on the back though obviously lol. I only did 2 passes since the first one was all over the place and the second one was the dreaded hesitation problem I had since the new intake went on.

Run 1(still hot from driving up)
60: 1.553.....new best
1/8: 7.215 @ 94.32....new best
1/4: 11.402 @ 117.19....new best

Run 2(bad hesitation, let off and just cruised at the 1/8)
60: 1.699
1/8: 7.807 @ 90.50
1/4: 12.902 @ 83.56

After a good dyno tune, QA1 rear shocks, and prepping the car I should be in the 11.1-.2 range. I have no doubt in my mind that if the car was prepped like I normally race I would have hit an 11.2. Ah next time.

Thanks. It's all motor. I've got full bolt-ons, 3.73 gears, Rossler built trans w/trans brake(not hooked up yet), 4400 stall, moser 12 bolt, ported heads, 242/242 cam, Hooseir 26x10x15 slicks on Weld draglites, BMR k member/uppper and lower a-arms, torque arm, Spohn LCAs and pro series rear sway bar.

I'm kicking myself for not prepping the car last night lol.
