I tried my luck at RMR fri. night. The place was packed. That was definitely the most cars for a midnight event. I got to the track at about 7pm. Paid my money, got in line, cleared tech and waited and waited. Finally made a pass at about 11:30. My reaction time really surprised me. .008, 60 foot 1.919. After shifting to 2nd a little early I was thinking to get more rpms befor going into 3rd gear. That was a not a good idea. Car started to cut-out. I got off the throttle shifted to 3rd got back on the throttle held it untill finish line. Results 13.600 @98.02. I was thinking it was lack of fuel that caused the engine cutting out but in retrospect I believe rev limiter was doing its job. There were alot of fast cars. I watched a zr1 race a supra equiped with a parachute. I was a little disappointed both cars had issues. stroker

Friday was not the best day for runs as trying to combine the two events seemed to result in total Chaos. That said,I watched the ZR run(on street tires I suspect) and was not surprised. It would be wonderful to have another month or so of just TNT as the cool air would benefit us all.I spent a couple hours in the stands,wishing I could figure out how to properly launch my car but that will have to wait til next year.

I ran once and got my best 60' so far and went to shift out of first and the clutch pedal was on the floor so I went straight to third and finished with a 13.1@114. What a way to end the season

I believe someone else has been saying that same thing, for years. lol. I feel you're pain Vince. Well, not trying to launch a monster such as yours but I agree with wanting cool autumn TNT passes...like you get elsewhere.
