Last Sunday evening (Oct 3rd), Martin (MAXSIX) and myself (CLAUDE), along with a few other Buick and Mustang buddies went to Napierville for some testing and tuning but mostly to have fun, and boy, did we have a great time!
The weather was cool (cold) and we both ran great times...Here's the detail below:
1st. run (a lone run) with 21 # of boost:
CLAUDE
0.17 -------reaction
6.32 --------1/8 et
9.93 --------1/4 et
135.61 ----M.P.H.
Things were looking good and I told Martin that it would be fun to run together and give our friends a good show, so we both set our boost at 26 # and here's what happened:
MARTIN <----------------> CLAUDE
0.09 --------reaction--------- 0.01
1.40 -----------60 ft ---------- 1.42
6.06 ----------1/8 et --------- 6.22
9.49 ----------1/4 et --------- 9.73
142.72 -----M.P.H. --------- 139.79
This was our best run for BOTH of us!......I had a little better reaction time off the line and jumped ahead of Martin, but he had more power and it didn't take long that he already passed me by the 1/8 th!
We let the cars cool down for about an hour and went back for one more run, but we switched lanes:
CLAUDE <---------------->MARTIN
-0.21 --------reaction ------- 0.24
1.40 ----------- 60 ft --------- 1.78
6.19 ----------1/8 et --------- 6.51
9.70 ----------1/4 et --------- 9.95
139.35 -----M.P.H. --------- 142.62
For me, this was my best run ever!
, beating my previous run, even if I red lighted...
For some reason, Martin spun a lot (1.78 60 ft.), but he still ran a great 142 M.P.H.
We decided that was enough for that evening,as it was getting a little chilly and we were hungry, so we left VERY happy with our results and we indeed achieved our goal to have fun!
Thanks for reading...
