NEW PERSONAL BEST

[Mike Gaines]

This last weekend ANRA (American Nostalgia Racing Association) Winter Nationals at Famoso.
I went 5 rounds to the SEMI FINAL. Red lit in SEMI by .002. Still a good race. Was in the Money.
I will post time slip pictures tomorrow or Friday.

Best Reaction Time: .010
Best 60 foot: 1.400
Best 330 foot: 4.133
Best 660 foot: 6.448
Best 1000 foot: 8.458
Best 1320 Foot: 10.170 (was hoping for 10.15 but couldn't cut it.)
Best 660 MPH: 106.07
Best 1320 MPH: 131.54
All above personal best splits.
This with my 3780 pound Coronet with NO power adders or Nitrous...all motor.

Went from 28" MTS to 29" tall HOOSIER STIFF SIDEWALL, plus I used tube
Trap RPM stayed the same at 6800 but about another 1 mph. Effectively went from my 4.30 gear to a 4.10 gear with the taller tire. 92 inch rollout versus 88 in charge rollout. Better et also

MAN SHE FLIES! Sounds great going down the track. Love where you mounted the trans brake button.

This run is when I dialed at 10.17 and ran a 10.170 with a .010 lite. That was the season points leader I took out on that run. Won by .0036.
