It has been over two months since running at the track, the last time being Memorial Day weekend. I was anxious to see what the 4.30s would provide over the 4.10s.

A baker's dozen!

The best reaction time I could muster was 0.026 seconds. The quickest sixty foot time came in at 1.949 seconds. The best 1/4 mile ET of the day was a 13.728 and the fastest trap speed was 100.12 mph.

Trying to stall the converter off the line during the launch only worsened the short time as evidenced by the only 2.0 seconds in the sixty foot column. I quickly reverted back to just matting the throttle. I was getting frustrated seeing red lights of -0.001, -0.003, -0.004 and -0.005. Twice I was caught off guard by a unusually quick tree after staging. Both were solo runs if that had anything to do with it. The resulting 0.2xx reaction times were disappointing.
