Still waiting for some times and pics from your runs. I am guessing it was a good night with the cooler air?

It was a pretty good night. 5 of us drove up, 3 M3s, 1 M5 and an XJR.

We did about 4-5 runs each. And if I remember correctly our best times were as follows:

Ado - 13.4

GSR - 13.5

Me - 13.8

M5 - I don't remember, but around 13.8. GSR can confirm this.

XJR - 14.0

I don't think anyone had a camera to take any pics though. This was my first time at the strip, and it was quite addictive, lol.

The best I did was 2.404. But this is my first standard car, and I've never launched before, so my start sucks.

2000gsr did 2.146 on the first run with me. Not sure about the others.

The car was hooking up nicely on the first couple of runs, after that the track got slick, I had to turn traction control on and as I was shifting the rear end still felt like it was sliding out.

Damn - you guys were spinning those tires! Get that 60 foot closer to 1.8 - 2.0 and you're in the low 13's / high 12's...
