JAMIE MOY Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 Went to Crail Raceway today to see what time I would get down the strip........... Will post results properly later on by scanning my sheet....... My best result was: RT: 0.142 60ft ( sec ): 2.466 TV ( MPH ): 101.8 ET ( sec ): 14.208 I didn't think they were bad times considering my car is stock.............and it's a big heavy ROADSTER If you think I should be getting better times than this for stock or if it's unusual to see these kind of results then please let me know as this was the first time I have ever been on a drag strip.......... Thanks......... Saw and met up with Chadwick.......... Not sure what his best time was so I will let him tell you himself............ Quote

But all joking aside just get it dynoed as it is now so that you have a base to work off, and then get it remapped for the big race....... It was good to meet you chadwick and give us a shout the next time your going up there......... Quote
