Hit the 12's today!!
 
Yep, I'm excited...it's been a great day!!! My family, and girlfriend all came out to watch me break into the 12's today at Carlsbad Raceway (where I also first hit the 13's when I first got my L) and I didn't let them down!!!

Daily Driven 2001 L! 21,000+ mi. Chip and pulley

Best was my 2nd run of a 12.86@105, 60ft. was 1.850 (Picture shown)

1st. run was a 12.88@106 with a 60ft. time of 1.962 (picture shown)

And my 3rd run was the slowest of the day at 12.95@105, 60ft. 1.94

It was lots of fun! Hopefully when i get my chip back, I'll be going faster next time.:D

Congrats BlackBolt99 thats awesome. What kind of rear tires are you running. Are you Hooking real good? :D

Madhouse Jan 20, 2002 12:06 PM

Excellent! What were your 660' times?

BLackBoLT99 Jan 20, 2002 01:13 PM

Hey, thanks everyone!

Chip, 4 lb pulley, and the ET Streets (sorry, thought the picture would have taken care of mentioning that for me).

Temp was between 60-65 degrees....

This track hooks better than all the others I have been to. But still not the best, I felt a little spin (launching from 700-900 rpms).

Dale, don't worry, next time I'll for sure e-mail you. I posted a message on this board, thinking more would show up, there were two other L's there, a Silver, and a white one.

Sam, Carlsbad won't win any awards for being pretty. But it's not a bad track. 200' above sea level, good weather. I see 12's in your future. Also, keep in mind, these times with my truck, are hot lapping, I only stopped once to ice the truck down for my last run, and when I did, I could hook for crap, which explains the 12.9. Also Sam, if you want to, I noticed you were thinking about getting some tires, since I'm taking my parts off my truck to get my chip reburned, I won't be racing for a few weeks, if you want to borrow my tires to see how they work for you, just shoot me an e-mail.

Awesome, Marcus.
Next time you decide to go shoot me an e-mail and I'll try to go with you.

Nice Marcus, I still got to go for a run in your truck. That way I will be more motivated to buy performance mods instead of appearance mods.
