I made it out to Bandimere Wed night. I'm having AFR sensor issues so I think that may explain the weak times plus it was darn hot. The car felt like it was running good but I know it's not. Previously I couldn't get anything slower then 15.7, last night I could barely crack into the 15.7s with a 15.789. (take 1 second off all time for altitude correction) Disappointing considering my last run at the track was a PB of 15.377ET

I had three runs but my kid cut off the vid for the last one with my nephew driving my wifes 02 Mustang GT. Her car is actually doing better since adding the X-Pipe and moving up to 10.5 in rims in the back.

A couple pics:




Running switchbacks only:

I only got three runs and each time the other car had the better 1/4mi but I still won two of them because my reaction time was better.

The Vids:


Dang I thought I had this guy but he come on huge in the end, nothing I could do. Lost by .019, he later ran a 14.3 (see 13.3 corrected for altitude)


Kids!

15.0 for the Challenger and a 15.9 for a GT? Man, I'd hate to have this track...
