We did the Wichita Nostalgia Race at KID and entered the '80 and older true street tire class. No drag radials allowed.
After some testing with a setup, we got a handle on it and was able to launch it pretty good! I dialed 12.00 (had to keep same dial all day!) but held quite a bit as the car was running 11.80's with this setup.
On one run I had to bomb the brakes. I Pushed the guy thinking he was going to break out and ran an 11.96 on 12.00 dial! I find out he red lit and I didn't see it but still pretty proud of the time even though I broke out. Didn't matter!
I got a best 1.72 60 ft. time and went rounds until the final. I'm not sure if the track prep went away or if someone put down some water or oil in my lane but using the same technique I'd used all day, the car spun HARD in the final.
I knew the guy that won and it is the second year we went to the tower to pick up checks together. $150 paid for my weekend and we had a good time!
