Atco sucked
for me anyways. I'm really beginning to hate my car. First pass it rpm hung(same old problem) half way through the 60. You have no idea how frustrating it is to have this car and all it's power and not be able to get a claen run out of it. Anyways, here is the slip
60 - 1.675
1/8 - 7.548 @ 93.42
1/4 - 11.762 @ 118.54(atleast I got a new best mph)
http://s110.photobucket.com/albums/n81/Jersey_TA/?action=view¤t=Jersey_TA1.flv
The next pass I let a friend(Kelsey) drive it because I was so pissed off after my first run that I didn't care who drove it and guess what??? no rpm hang what so ever. Atleast there were a few guys there I know to take my mind off the runs.
60 - 1.647(launched at 2000 rpms)
1/8 - 7.269 @ 95.27
1/4 - 11.385 @ 120.07(she pretty much kicked my ass)
http://s110.photobucket.com/albums/n81/Jersey_TA/?action=view¤t=Kelsey113.flv
The next 2 runs were spin shut down, and rpm hang spin let off. The track went away after an old malibu wrecked. The track lost all it's heat after that. So my luck this year completely sucks. Who knows when I can get to the track next to try and beat my 11.40.

There is a difference. I will NEVER claim someone else's time in my car. It was ran in my car yes, but it wasn't me driving so I have no business claiming it.
I don't know. I actually went to see Lanse run, but he never ended up going so I just ran the T/A. I didn't really make a big deal about going because until I get this rpm hang probelm figured out I don't want to waste anyones time coming down to watch when my car performs like ****. If that makes any sense.

So how busy was the track? I talked to Sean (93Fastbird) last night and he had taken his T/A to the track in St. Lous, and he said he had been waiting for 3 hours and there was still a line about a half mile long in front of him!

They had 4 lanes of street cars. Yeah GIR usually gets really busy. Tell him to go early.

I'll pass along the info to him. Hopefully in another month when I have my Camaro here it won't be as busy (not likely, I know). I hate going when its totally packed, and you only can get a couple runs in per night.
Good luck next time with your car. I think we've all been there at least once where our car didn't perform like it should at the track.
Here's an example of mine at atco last year when my inlet tube to my blower was collapsing as I was doing runs at Atco. The second run it was doing fine until I hit 3rd gear and the tube collapsed and almost stalled the car

It shifts at 7k. I'd have to talk to Roshan about the little things though.
