Very exciting to see the thread shift to the '16's! But just so we don't forget, finally took my '15 down the track before I clean her up and put her away for a nice winter nap. Those of you waiting on the '16's...buckle up! These cars are absolute beasts.
Took three runs. I must say, I was awful in the tree. Been 20+ years since I've been on the drag strip. (And it showed) Here is what she ran:
Pass 1: 60' - 1.958, 1/8 ET- 8.285, 1/4 ET- 12.773 MPH- 108.62
Pass 2: 60' - 1.938, 1/8 ET- 8.316, 1/4 ET- 12.825 MPH- 106.74
Pass 3: 60' - 1.822, 1/8 ET- 8.064, 1/4 ET- 12.531 MPH- 108.49
I ran the car bone stock. Not a single mod - except for the Inaugural 110 sticker on the window! Just like I drove her home from the dealer. Full tank of gas and my son in the passenger seat. He's 12 and smiled the entire time each pass! I was in sport mode, traction control off, and left at an idle and eased into the throttle. Had to track through the water, so did a quick burnout to get water off the treads. Like I said above, these cars are beasts. The time slips for the first and third passes are attached. Not sure what I did with the second??? The third pass was in a gambler's race. Had to dial in the car. It ran much quicker than anticipated, so it was a loss. But, with that time, I'd say it was a WIN all the way!
Like I said, if you're waiting for 2016, sit back, relax, and just smile knowing that you are getting one hell of a car. :thumbsup:
