: My first ever drag race. 13.461 @ 105.89
g8_795 08-15-2008, 09:36 PM I will post a video soon. I was running in the 13.7's all night.
Here is my best:
R/T: 0.310
60': 2.061
1/8: 8.774
1/8 MPH: 82.36
1/4: 13.461
1/8 MPH: 105.89
I wanted to run in the 13's and I did. I really wanted to beat my buddies L-2 goat and I did. I was pretty happy with my results. It took me a few runs to figure out what the hell I was doing. I will post some vids later tonight if I can figure out my camera.

So you must be in FL then. Yeah, it was either in the low 80's or upper 70's tonight. It was pretty nice. It was very humid, actually sprinkled a bit. Just missed some storms.
g8_795 08-16-2008, 12:39 AM Here is the video of my 13.461 run. You can't see the resulting numbers, but I can post the slip. The stang beat me by 0.0157 overall, but ran a 13.074 1/4. He stopped gaining me toward the end of the run. If I had another 1/16 mile, I think I would of had him.

Cool_Hand_Luke 08-16-2008, 06:40 AM That is a decent time and trap speed.
g8_795 08-16-2008, 09:17 AM your URL

Boomer 08-16-2008, 10:31 AM there is a youtube button that you can use under the advance tab.

g8_795 08-16-2008, 10:51 AM Thanks guys. I write C code all day long, so this high level stuff throws me for a loop. And it doesn't help that I am a slow learner.
I was putting the entire URL in the youtube tags. I guess you are only suppose to put in the character string at the end of the youtube URL to make it work inside the youtube tags.

g8_795 08-16-2008, 12:48 PM Here is compilation of four of my runs. I was the only Pontiac G8 there. There was a ton of GTO's. My wife told me that the announcer called my G8 a v6 version, since it was debadged. He then corrected himself when I went against the first Mustang.

You did 13.5 stock?? That is great. I had to dump $$$'s to do it.

MissNaySimon 08-17-2008, 11:14 AM Yeah. It was at my first bracket race with the G8 on Father's Day. My husband nearly Sh*t a brick when he saw my E/T come up on the board. I knew I must have done something good when he came running up to me before I even got back to my pit spot.
Blackdevil77 08-17-2008, 11:19 AM lol. that is f*^& awsome! What was the weather like that day? I can never run that stock. I weigh 250 lb's for god's sake!
MissNaySimon 08-17-2008, 11:21 AM Hey, I'm not tiny myself. :P I'm still working off the baby weight! So, I'm sure you could.
