Default July Texas DRL results, Ol'blue wins again! & Should Ol'blue Stay Streetable Vote Now

I know, I know, I been missing in action a lot lately.

I apologize guys. It's just been crazy busy lately.

I just wanted to let you guys know I'm still around and give you a little update from the last TXDRL Strictly Street Race. Ol'blue took home the trophy again and set another class ET record with a 6 flat in the 1/8th in the Texas Heat and humidity!

Here are some pics.

Yeah it was holding. I was on the footbrake at around 2000 rpm. I transfered over when you saw the rock. We've made some adjustments to the tune. I just have to drive it more like a race car at the track now. I have to two foot the stage and be above 2000 rpm when I go to the T-brake. That's why she comes up so fast now. It's also why the car can cut a better light...I don't have to wait for it.

Thanks!

She's moving quicker every day. Even with the Heat and Humidity climbing here. Gives me high hopes for some new personnal best when the weather turns around!

And I still haven't used the second kit on a pass yet.

I know exactly how you feel, I got a 1.6 on my last 60`. I can tell O`L Blue is getting faster,you can just see it off the line. Thanks PL For the help to be able to get my 60` down. I never got below a 1.7 before.

Weight transfer is the key to launching a car.

Told you it would work!
