Thumbs up New best 1/8th mile time!

hey guys i just thought i would share my best new 1/8 mile time. i had a big grudge race with a mustang and besides him turning his street car into a drag car(open headers, drag skinnies, 200 hp shot of nos, and slicks which was ok b/c we agreed on just running slicks vs. my drag radials) anyway to make a long story short i had shown him a time of my truck which was a 8.22 @ 84.7 and when i got to the track somehow he had already ran 7 or 8 times and the track wasnt even open(buddies with the owner) so i was ill over that b/c we had agreed that we would hit the track at the same time. anyway i got there put my drs on and he loaded up on the trailer hahaha! i guess he knew he didnt want none of the bolt. here is my best time of the night temp: was round 42 and traction was terrible all night. but the nittos worked pretty well under the conditions.

r/t .527
60' 1.929
330' 5.354
594' 7.675
1/8th 8.197
mph 86.20 on this pass i did run a 86.56 mph on another
its not alot better than my best but mph was alot better.
o i ran 4 times had 1 terrible red light .442 but 3 good lights .532, .527, and my BEST!!!!! .504 needless to say i was focused for this grudge race.

Rusty;

You met him like a man and he showed his true colors--yellow !

Hey, don't get any quicker--cornercarver's already leavin' me behind and you've beat me 2 or 3 times. What's an ol' man to do?

Good time Rusty, looks like you've got your reaction times down pat now. I'm sure several others saw his times and then saw you run, It all comes out in the end.
