NEW 5.5 PB!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jlvEqClE9R0
more videos to come (pay attn to trap speeds)
day 1- 14.5@95 straight off the highway to try and qualify
14.0@97 after the car cooled down..
Day 2- 13.9@99 cooled down for a lil bit and weather was warmer
13.8@100 temp was about 5* cooler if not the same

with that said i have a new PB... i was attackin the best auto 5.5 but unfortunately during the week i lost my wallet with my drivers lisence and bank card so i never got to order what i wanted... i am very pleased with my times however and i will probebly order those parts as soon as my card comes in...

Did you mean atmosphere, denver? cause this was in maryland. A 13.8 pass at denver altitude would be the same as like a 12s pass at normal altitude

Thanks to all, for the love... it was a very nice support from the fellow orgers who did show, even to those who didnt... i didnt really get the times i was set out for however... my new goal now is to get this auto into the 12's with no FI (kinda have an idea of how i can pull it off) i know its a crazy goal, but not impossible... im now looking to buy a beater car for the time being... im not sure when the tracks close here but i might try my luck again at the possible 13.7...








edit: Oh and no internal work
