I was also there too.

Didnt get to meet anyone though... I was too busy enjoying the fun there. I was in the Green 1gb talon with black rims.
I ran a best of 13.5 @ 99 mph. Track prep that day was sooo crappy, I was only pulling 2.0 60 fts. I had fun.

i managed a 1.8 in the galant, even tho i was spinning alot.... i would like to see what i wouldve gotten if i had more practice after the track warmed up. after the track warmed up i kept boggin out cause i didnt have a clue what i was doing

Yea, I was able to spin all 4 tires at RF. I can never be able to do that on the streets....

umm well i can spin on the streets too, but the way rock falls was on sunday sucked for me, i spend all morning time trialing on a cold track and when you get to the races that actually mean something then the sun comes out and heats the track up so you get traction, i was launching at the same rpm's but now boggin instead of spinning for a few feet. Ohh well thats the only way to get experience

Yeh it was nice to see most of the awd dsm launching side ways. Except two dsm drivers that should go back and own hondas. There was one black 1g awd and a green one that ran 16's. Damn a stock honda civic could of ran better.

I pulled a 1.80 and a 1.82 at 9:30 and 10:30 in the morning. The track wasn't horrible. I was spinning all through first even though I was bumping off the rev limiter a bit to help the car catch up with the tires. I would spin for a bit more after the 2nd shift, but grab some traction in 2nd. I am running a welded viscous, but 3 year old street tires.

I dunno. Every time I go always pull a different 60 ft. Last time I was able to get 1.7 60 ft, and this time i was only pulling 2.0's.

I've always spun real hard at Slippery Falls. I cranked my Koni's up to full stiff one time to see if it would help and I almost hit the wall around the 100' mark. Last year I used Nitto drag radials and still spun but not as badly. They hooked really good at Cedar Falls. This year I'll just spin around on my 17" street tires, although they're damn good tires.

Last Oct. I pulled a 1.78 60' at Rock Falls. That was my first time out with the GSX. That's on heavy ass 19" Racing Harts w/ Yokohama Parada Spec 2's. It'll do better than that though.
