Default Round 2 with the 98' GSR

Well last night me, my friend(patrick, base rsx), and my dad(300ZX TT). Made our second trip out to Jackson. First for time for the dad. I took most of ya'lls racing advice. I took out the spare and front seat. Had only about a 1/4 tank of 93 left. And lowered the pressure to around 28psi to start. We ran 7 times, and my second run was the best of the night....

reaction .344
60 ft 2.47
330ft 6.90
1/8 10.45
1/8 69.42
1/4 16.0 s
1/4 86.2mph

I thought that was definately an improvement. (almost .5 seconds) And, It was hotter out last night than my first night. Later in teh night I lowered my pressure down to around 22psi and I pulled a 2.43 60ft. 1/4 in 16.1 at 85.21mph. I just can't get my 60 down much lower. Patrick lowered his time as well and pulled a 16.6 at like 81 in his RSX. We both decided that were going to wait until it cools down here in the blazing south. It was mid-80's during our runs. Anyways, i'm pleased and can't wait to go again later on this year.

O ya, my dad ran a 13.9 at 105.9mph the first run in his Z w/ a 2.2 60ft. I'll get his slip tonight and post it up exactly. His car definately has more potential, but the long drive there and the extreme heat kinda hurt him. Also, it was his first time running. Please comment on everyone's run

I raced at Jackson, South Carolina. It is pretty close to the border of GA/SC. I'm pretty sure it is a shitty track. Currently I have an AEM CAI. That's all the performance I have. H/E/C coming soon

Also, I got my H&R sports in today. I'm gonna try to install them tomorrow w/ my dad.
