Man, it was packed last night! We only got in two runs 'cause of all the cars there, plus all the stupid "demonstration" runs they did. I do not need to see a pair of hotrodded semi trucks that can do 11-12 second passes 3 times in one night!! Or any of the other "demo" dragsters that have to shut down early because the runout area isn't long enough for them to stop if they do a ful run!

End of rant.

Did my runs with my usual setup - back seats out, spare and jack in. Tried an experiment using a length of 2.5" hose running from the brake duct next to the fog light, up through the inner fender liner, and feeding into the air filter. Made no difference whatsover so I'm getting rid of it.

1st Run

R/T: .376
60': 2.207
330: 6.174
1/8: 9.532@73.07MPH
1000: 12.489
1/4: 14.990@89.76MPH

Went up against some goofball in a yellow Mustang with a ton of stickers all over it. He couldn't figure out how to stage and ended up just sitting there while I made my pass. Oh well.

2nd Run

R/T: .437
60': 2.222
330: 6.190
1/8: 9.538@72.99MPH
1000: 12.461
1/4: 14.918@91.40MPH

Ran against an SRT-4 and lost (yeah, big shock!) to his 13.738 @ 102.79
