best runs of the night, 11.94, 12.03, 12.07. Track condition started getting worse and worse and more traffic came in, was aborting run after run due to spinning and decided to call it quits, lowered the tire pressure as well but made no difference.

11.94 and 12.07 logs attached. the 12.07 run would have been an 11 if it wasn't for some slight wheel hope.
No throttle closure on shifts. What is your secret?
20 psi and 16 degrees timing. Looks nice!

I was actually on mode 2 not 3 on my times. Originally it was modes 1-4, now is modes 0-3. For Bar reference initially.
Mode 3 is the meth mode and I want to avoid future confusion.

Please edit if you can. Thanks.
 
as long as you're going around it when pulling in, backing into the damp area near it is fine. Burnouts on street tires is just for fun, doesn't help with traction. Spinning them a little will get the debris off which does help.

I think your right, thats probably one of the reasons im getting water because i drive through it and the front wheels probably carry water to the staging.

Will back into the water box the next time.

No secret, i randomly checked some older logs and seems to be the same. Sometimes there would be some closure in 1-2 shift but the rest no closure.

Maybe cause i shift early?

6 Stingers in the 11s now!

Technically it's 7. Crewdawg chose to omit his best run from the list until he fine tunes it. He's probably got the fastest Stinger in the U.S.

Yes, I wish he would share and post. I would go ahead and add it but haven't seen the dragy.
 
@ScottyCole - did you just add an HFC or is it the UP HFC down pipe mid pipe combo?

It was a track run, pretty sure. Literally zero traction through an 1/8 I believe. Drag radials gonna be needed with more sidewall.

Who’s in NC with a draggy? And whose close to Apex/Raleigh with one to be more precise.

I returned my Dragy to Amazon after I tired of searching for flat/straight roads. @friss is also in the area and I think has a Dragy.
 
I’ll post the heck out of invalid uphill runs and tell people to bite for it being invalid lol.

Nah it's just going to get the trolls out. 11.9@122 at a track running hybrid turbos (even at lower boost) isn't really worth posting.
