I made it up to Capitol tonight

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBTga64Z858

I got two runs tonight. First pass was pretty clean, but conservative. I just wanted to make sure I made all my shifts. These passes were both on the pump + meth tune. We had to install a new clutch today to be able to make this track night happen. I was able to get about 140 miles on the clutch before the passes.
1st pass
60 ft 1.693
330 4.843
1/8th 7.375@95.82
1000 9.542
1/4 11.370@124.34

2nd pass I bogged the launch, but was able to shift much faster and I also stayed in 4th through the traps instead of shifting into 5th like the first run.
60 ft 1.771
330 5.063
1/8th 7.613@96.57
1000 9.774
1/4 11.579@125.54

The 624/528 tune was race gas. The official numbers for the meth tune were 514/425, but that was before we changed the muffler, and opened it up substantially. We road tuned the meth last night right before going to the track, and it was awesome. The first run I just wanted to hit every shift, and I actually shifted into 5th at the end of the run, when I should have stayed in 4th. On the second run, I bogged the launch, and then was able to get back in it pretty quick. I ran it harder on the second run and adjusted my shift points a bit and was Flat foot shifting with my two step at 6800. That is why I was able to make up the MPH on the second run.

I'd like to get a few runs under my belt on the pump/pump+meth tunes and see if I can get into the 10's with the meth. I'm sure I can drop some time with some practice. I was also running with my subs, amps, computer and file bag, spare, jack, cooler, etc...

Nice runs! Do you have a roll cage? Capitol is usually pretty strict about that.

No cage, and the girl who handed me the time slips didn't even look at me. I think they will look twice when I blast a mid 10 on race gas!!!
