Like the title says i ran a 13.91 at royal purple raceway in Baytown Texas friday night. it was about 90 deg outside and humid as hell. it seemed like others were running slower than normal as well. i would have thought i would have run at least a 13.8

video below. i was racing a GT500. he really didnt know how to drive, because i beat him haha.

13.9 is not far from 13.8. In the video, I would swear that you let off the gas before the win light went off. How many runs did you get?

when i watched the vid i was thinking the same, but i actually made it across, and believe it or not this was the fastest i could manage. my other runs were 13.97 and 14.01 and 14.1. im going to go back when it gets a bit cooler and try my luck again sometime. heat soak is a biach!

Doesn't seem bad to me- not great, but not bad. What tires do you have? Wear level? Width?

Thats what my cat ran at BIR ( brainerd intl. raceway) just a couple of months old14. flats,, with a couple of 13.9x's thrown in, all at around 100 mph, or 99. allthough it wasn't as hot as it was for your outing, my car should do slightly better now, with more miles, and a couple of breather type mods....this is an X btw...
