Like I said in the original posts, the track conditions were
terrible, so my launches where nothing like whay I was used to
doing at the California Speedway.
In CA, I was able to hook up right from the start, and averaged
a 2.2 to 2.4 60' time. I've checked all of my old timeslips, and
in CA I was getting a really consistant 9.75 @ 71MPH for the 1/8.
I did notice that I hit the same 71 MPH for the 1/8 in Texas as
well, but it took me a full second more to do it.
At the track yesterday in Texas, I could not get the wheels to
hook up until well into 2nd gear. This also probably attributed
somewhat to my lousy R/Ts as I probably wasn't even moving for
a tenth or few after hitting the gas. You could *see* all of the
rubber on the track peeling up in patches, and could hear a very
faint crunching noise when driving over it.
