I haven't been around for a while and I no longer own a Beretta, but I do remember a Hell of a Lot of good times with this group.

Everyone please have a wonderful holiday and for God's Sake be safe.

Cheers everyone :beer: :beer:

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

:deadhorse: That's me! ROTFL :good:

Made it out of thanksgiving alive, so that's good. Fucking 2020 so you never know...

Had two runs at the track this year to beat 13.47 and still didn't. Over-revved the engine on one and spun the tires on the other. But on that spinning run with a garbage 60' (off my regular pace by 2 tenths) it went 13.67. So I know it's mine. :evil:

Woody what do your 60' times look like? I recall my best was 1.87.

Consistent 1.94s with the slicks at 15psi. I dumped the clutch from 3000-5000 with zero change in 60...it dead hooks the tires and bogs down to about 2100rpm and takes off.

The last drag day I went to, I dropped the tires to 18 or 20psi - I can't remember now - in hopes to get just a little spin and no bog. But it blew them off completely and I had to get out of the throttle and back on. That was a 2.1 something 60 on that one. So with a regular launch I should be around 13.3. Possibly even better with just a little bit of tire spin. Here's the video of my only run that day with the nice weather. 4th gear shift could have been quicker, too. But 4th can be a real fucker in this car.

There's a bunch of info on it in my build thread.
