had three runs today and a personal best

13.93 @ 101

13.89 @ 101

i will get the time slips after i find them lol.

sweet times. Looks like a sweet event too.

thanks man, yea it is a really cool event. schools from all over PA, NJ, NY and MD come to race in this event. i think that there were over 200 cars from different school and 100 cars from UTI. there was a mach there with DR's and a drag suspension (full coilovers). pretty sick looking car cept the driver couldnt drive, he pulled a 14.35 or something. it was really bad.

Thats funny i was their today too and when i saw that white gt I was wondering if that was your car because i know u live in PA. You ran good times compared to the other new edge gt's. Some of those kids have very nice cars. Im the guy that goes to PSU berks where you goin next year if im correct.

hahaha. you should have followed me into the pits then. i was parked at the finish line right next to the bleachers. i was soooo freaking pissed when i got eliminated. that damn heavy ass slow pos firebird beat me by .0016 seconds!!!!! i was flipping out when i didnt see my light go off at the end of the track. hahaha

thanks for the compliments man. i dont know if you remember the blue mach from UTI but that driver couldnt drive worth anything for the races i saw. haha

EDIT: o and btw, you are correct about berks. we should roll to the track or something sometime man, that would be pretty sweet

ive always been curious, but why do they always remove the one headlight when racing?

HAHA yeh that blue mach that guy couldnt shift at all when i saw him get in the mid 14s i felt alittle embarassed for him ha. I was with my roomate and he took some video i have to see of ur in any of them.

But some of those imports where rediculously loud/annoying and still slow like low 15s high 14s ha. It was a good turnout though.

answering Must See's question - On the other side of the hole behind the headlight is where his airfilter is so it kinda acts as a ram air system pulling in more air.

What did you run before the 4.10's?

did you pop the center caps out of your wheels to save weight?

i think it might have been to double check that the lug nuts are torqued down and so that if they were to pop off for some reason they woudn't be on the track.

its for tracks that actually tech...

looks like you shoulda had one of the quickest cars out there though!

Yeap WTF is that. I think he spaced the stripes a bit too far.

wow Brandon looks like a lot of fun! great pics, I wish when I was in highschool my highschool would of done something like this!

thanks guys. i actually had an average speed car. there were a few cobras that ran 12's, couple foxes that ran 11's (1 of them got kicked out of the event cause he ran below 11.5 seconds. lol.)

the air filter is right behind the hole for the head lights. it acts as a ram air. and yes it does work, i have never been able to get under 14.2 with the head light in.

as for the center caps, it was apart of the tech. the cars couldnt run with hub caps or anything on the wheels that could pop off.

Storm, i ran a 13.97 before the 4.10. i have a lot left to improve on with them cause i am only pulling 2.1 60' times with them.

looks like you had some fun...:D
