It was a pretty good day. I was hoping to run better times, but still got a new PB, of 13.6 in the T/A. I was really surprised that we were able to talk my buddy into bringing his SRT-8 Magnum up. I got a few good runs with him today on video. I'll probably post them up later tonight.

I killed my clutch on my last/best run of the day.. although a clutch is cheaper than a motor, limping all the way back to Davenport wasn't exactly my idea of fun big thanks to you and matt for puting this together..

had a great time...although the mechanicals on some vehicles didnt go as planned it was still great. I think I ended up dragging out about 4 guys. Track rentals are way better than normal track days.

Was very impressed....with the DA being ~2000ft... you did pretty good. thanks.. with the DA that high, maybe that's why i was having issues with the tune. Typically i run 26-28 degrees of advance but it got thirsty today and wanted more and more.. somewhere between 30 and 32 got my traps up in the 105 MPH range. I started off the day running high 13's @ 97

Even though my rear end took a huge dump on the line I had a good time. I couldnt hook all day so I lowered my tires to about 18psi and apparently they hooked to hard and there went the driver side axle. But running the 8 lbs pulley I went a best of 12.1 @ 116mph. with the DA high and crappy traction I know the car has a high 11 in it with the 8 lbs pulley. I have the axle out of it already and should be fixed before the end of the month, just more money.

LS7 Clutch time? sure is, but it won't be coming out of my garage until spring now... time to save I'm not disappointed though. I knew it was going to happen soon, just wasn't expecting it today. I made it home without paying for a tow and I'm more than happy with three 13.4 runs and 5 of my 7 runs having 104.xx traps.

No I havent even taken the rear cover off yet, thats happening tomorrow, I just know so far that the drivers side axle is snapped and that my rotor on my drivers side is screwed ( that is what caused it to lock up not the diff. The axle pushed the brake rotor into the bracket that holds the caliper on and it locked it up. I will let you know, i really want to put the 31 splines in if anyone has a 31 spline diff.
