Default First times for the demon.

today at PRP the demon cut its teeth...the best was a 13.59 @ 98.95 (8.666 at 80.90 8th mile), with a 1.94 short time. the 3.23 gears are slowing it down quite a bit, as it was in second gear until RIGHT at the line...

im very pleased with these early numbers, as there are no gears, and a very basic build...small cam and valves, headers, intake, factory ignition...the car tipped the scales at 3140.

Swap the gears and that baby will be ripping through the quarter.

We kept this gear because I want to be able to drive it long distances...
