Took Sally to the track last night

It was a good time. It was the first time I've had this SS/SC at the track. I mainly raced against my friends M62 powered LD9 Cavy. The cars were neck and neck until my catalytic converter let go

It was hotter than Hades anus when we got there and neither car liked it much. For reference the Cavy traps 101mph in good weather. In the heat it was trapping just at 98mph. It started cooling off finally but my car was getting slower and slower and his was getting quicker. So I knew something was wrong.

Also the track wasn't prepped worth a damn so we couldn't get the cars off the line. He did a little better since he has coil overs and I'm still on 120K mile factory stuff. But my best run of the day was a 14.499@97.69 still in the heat of the day. I have

One of the passes against my friends Cavy.

This pass is when I knew something was seriously wrong. The car fell flat on its face, you can hear it right before I let off the throttle lol


My best time of the night vs my friends Z24. I'm in the left lane. This is before my cat went to hell. As you can see they are damn near evenly matched. The car has a 13 in it on a good prep track with good weather.

Surprised you spun that much off the line, but you probably don't have the best traction tires on her.

Yeah I bumped it because there weren't many other posts that I was commenting on. No one ever replied to his post so I didn't want him to get a complex.
