Thats great Amy, way to go, congratulations !!!!

 

Good job Amy! When you're excited, I'm excited!
11.56 eh? Not too shabby.
I'm just now getting my stage 2 going.
Finally!
You're "only" 2.1 seconds quicker than me right now.

 

lol thanks guys. i know she's got at least another tenth or two in her, just gotta get it out. it was a perfect day to race....i was in a tshirt until 9pm last night!!! can't ask for more in the middle of october

 

Wow, good job! How were you shifting too slow?

 

Where did it go after 9pm??? Very good runs! Can't wait till friday...it will be my first track experience in my SRT. I'm hoping to be over 14 sec, with my mods...[:-]

 

shirts disappear after 9pm and we run topless haha

jim - i wasn't wot shifting in the first two runs. honestly i only wot shifted 3-4 in the last run as well [:@] but i had a much better 60' and my 2-3 shift was quicker, which is what always kills me. hopefully i'll have the vid up later today

Topless eh? Now I know your secret(s) Vastly improved aerodynamics! That would explain the high trap. LOL
I guess I'm gonna have to break out the razor and get all serious like the swimmers do........

"Englishtown" sure to be voted the best drag racing venue from the spectators.

Hey seriously, good job again Amy.
I wouldn't mind seeing a video of the run if ya got one.
In fact, if ya got any "other" videos of anything you want to send me, my address is;..............just kidding.
Amy ROCKS!

 

how do you shift from 2nd the 3rd ? ... do you hold the shift **** and "throw it into third" ? ... that is what most people do .. the fastest and most efficient way is to use the heel of your hand and push
