Talking 8's FINALLY!!

Ok so last time I went to the track (1/8), I kept running 9.1's - 9.2's consistantly. This was in the summer heat and average street tires. Well, yesterday I finally managed a 8.7!!! I know it's not a real big deal, but I've been trying for 8's all year. I have BF Goodrich Drags to thank, not to mention the cool October air.
