14.01 @ 100.48mph. 2.10 60', Reaction .55

Couldn't get traction all night. A lot of NIC cars were running mid 13's all night so i guess i shouldnt be to disappointed with the 14.01, i wanted a 13.9 really bad, but i didn't want to end up breaking. I did 9 passes.

Yeah, the first run of the night i pulled a 17.03 ahaha, tires were wet because it was the first run on the track out of anyone, and i spun the WHOLE track. i let off, but kept on spinning everytime i'd get into it. It was bad. I even trapped 94mph in that run haha. Then after that run i came back and ran a 14.3, and then the next run was a 14.1, then the next was the 14.01 and constantly stayed in the 14.01 range. I even hotlapped it once to see if i could get a better time while the tires were still warm and everything, but it didnt help, kept pulling 14.01's.

You know the more I read threads like this one the more it seems like the 3800 is some distant relative of a diesel. It seems like some people have invested in mountain of mods, including going as far as intercooling and still cant crack the magic 300hp barrier. Yet the engine is obviously making so much torque over a broad band that the tires are overpowered (as referenced by Boosten spinning the entire length of the track)
