I think mph was around 118
that is with NO SPRAY / n20
We actually put down 3 or 4 runs that were pretty close in times, ranging from 11.47 to 11.5? Not bad for the second time out. Hopefully tomorow will be even better.

Altitude Correction
LACR is 2,710 ft. above sea level.
To figure the altitude factor the formula is as follows:
ET: multiply your et (at LACR) by .97
MPH: multiply your mph (at LACR) by 1.03
This will give you the ET & MPH at sea level.
The above was taken off the LACR website which means that corrected for sea level it went 11.1259 @ 122.57
I must put on my Christmas list 1 x Turbo

I love, praise, admire, and worship all of you MINI drivers that have a 13 second or less COOPER S. That's just incredibly insane for our little 1.6L's !!! Think about it, mid 1990 V10 Vipers had those sorts of times! I someday hope to join your elite heirarchy.

Good luck today guys, looks like a 10 is in there somewhere, I'm sure the Doc is just playing with us
What is it going to run with the nitrous?? could well be in the 9's
don't forget you'll have to add those front rollcage bars to pass tech then
.
12.9s are so slow now

Oh well, so I exaggerated a bit about the 9's. But an 11.26 made big smiles from MiniUSA and all who came out to support us. Big kudos to our fearless driver, Dr. Fuh!! All info coming to the blog soon!
