MIR is hands down the best set up track, but you don't get many runs in there. At Mason dixon, i got 11 runs including 2 breaks for gas and food.

4 runs...although it would have been better if we got there prior to 3:30 :d
I got a 14.542 @ 101.26...not bad...I can work that into a high 13 with a better launch and shifting.

Bah come on up and get some baseline runs is man!! I'm gonna try and make it up there this Sunday too if they're open. I wanna run again but I need to get my oil done first. We'll see what happens though.

MIR is a great track, I just get paranoid to run too much there. Seems everyone I know is always breakin somethin on that track. Somethin about the track prepp. I do wanna get back down there a time or two again soon though. But Capitol is all of about 10 mins from my door so it makes it hard. I think a bunch of us are planning a trip down there pretty soon though. Maybe we can get a nice gathering of you guys and caravan.

I have an Injen intake, GMPP manifold, GMPP cat-back, ZZP poly-motor mount, ZZP poly transmission mount. 228hp/200tq.

I had one heck of a time launching consistently. I had no feed back through the pedals. The 2nd run I dropped the clutch at 2000 rpm and spun, I feathered the clutch and got a massive wheel hop. I should have kept spinning and not messed with the clutch.

another friend went too, he has an Injen intake only

I truly got humbled that day. I had the better car I just got out performed. Its part of the learning curve...

I will think about it, I want to get all my parts on soon. They look real pretty sitting here. Now I just have to figure out how the hell to install all of them.

Allright, I'm definetly making plans now for this weekend, cause you never know, it just might be the last chance I get to run while I'm all stock. Where's everyone going?

[SoupsRedline]

What time is the track open on Sundays?!? I have something going on in the afternoon/evening, but since there are people trying to get together, and peer pressure is the best thing to get Brett out, lol, then I might plan on going also. O yeah, brett, one of the many things on my plate I was talking about, got solved today. I got a job offer, 8K a year increase, haha!!! Pay off credit card faster... than 7krpm redline for the RL. I know you are hating that the stages are coming out months after you got rid of yours. lol.
