    As soon as Beach Bend opens I want to check it out. I heard it's nice there. The only 1/4 mile track I have ever been to is the Z-max track in NC and I ran my 2010 13.2 @ 107.88 mph on street tires with a 2.2 sixty foot.

    I went to BG about a month and a half ago. Bogged hard the first pass and went a 12.61@110. 2nd pass I launched and broke haha. I should be in the high 11's right now on motor.

    My car runs DEAD On at all 3 tracks normally. I can go to the hill and run 8.12-8.20 all night long on a friday night. Leave there and drive straight to CVille and run 8.13-8.20 all night long. On the factory tires.

    Last year when the car had the stock motor at BG I ran 8.10-8.20 All day long in a humid 100* day. The car ran 8.04-8.12 all year last year at Union hill and Clarksville on cooler nights. All 3 tracks are within .1 of each other every time I go as long as conditions are close to the same obviously.

    Closest 1/4 to me Empty has a lot to do with the driver.

    I have seen stout three valve run and I have never been able to run that way. Very consistent runs every time. When I grow up I want to drive just like that (I'm 40).

    HAHAHA.. Well this is how I see it, my car can only accelerate so fast. If I launch it as hard as it can, and shift at the best RPM for the next gear, It's only going to go as fast as it can.
