Hey guys, just to be clear...I spoke to Todd earlier this week about doing a 60-130 event today but we never set anything up. The track will be open for 1/4 mile drag racing tonight but not a 60-130 event. In any case, I PROMISE I will do a 60-130 event in July and we'll plan it in such a way that you all can drag race after the 60-130...

Have fun tonight.
Peter

I wrote an article that the 60-130 is the new performance standard.

Should be NO problem. You should be able to beat my 60ft by about 3/10's which should put you VERY close to 10's...

Todd, you should still be able to grab some times...couple of passes can be 1/4 mile passes, couple of 60-130's? Actually, with the Tip, they ALL can be 60-130 passes, just leave the Pbox on the whole time!!!!!

Rob,

A modded Gixer ran a 4.8 last time I was at the track, and it was a warm day.

I liked your article (lived in SF for 8 years). I was amused by your reference to "Mexico".

Ok, it's unofficial until Scott verifies, but I ran a best 10.96 at 132.55. 1.79 60'. It was muggy of course an 85 degrees.
