I had an opportunity to run at the track today at a private rental. Sure beats the average test and tune at the track. I managed 18 runs in 3 hours compared to 3 or 4 runs in 5 hours!
Nothing spectacular, just getting some practice time at the tree since it's been a little lean this year. The best I mustered out of the Blue Flame was a 13.66 @ 100.66. Average was 13.8 @ 99. Density altitude ranged 2000-2400 feet. Reaction times were hit and miss since I was trying different launch techniques, especially in the last hour of hot lapping, but overall I was pleased with the session.
I did finally find the "treadlife" limits of my Hoosier drag tires though. Looks like I'll need a new set, since I can now see the cords. :laugh:
