Thought I would share my adventures at the track last weekend. This was the first chance I've had to run the Mistress at the track since we ran her in July. July was 90+ degree heat at Norwalk, where she ran 13.4 to
13.5 all weekend... However Nowalk was probably the stickiest track I've ever been on! LOL! So this last weekend I headed out to the local tracks... The temps were a lot better but the tracks were pretty slippery...(TnT at the little local tracks means little prep) finding traction was tough... even with the drag radials...Saturday's best run was 13.229 @ 104MPH... this was with a tailwind...
Sunday I was running 13.4 @ 103 with a headwind (different track)... after making some tweaks in the tuning I was able to pull off a 13.262 @ 105!
Now... the best I have ever run the car was 13.13 on a 125HP shot of N20... and proceded to break a piston on the next run! OUCH! Now with the Vortech, The Mistress is a solid 13.2 car... and more importantly it's repeatable! LOL!
