Drag Racing at Firebird in Boise, ID - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Hammer · 10-01-2006

I went out to Firebird yesterday and the outcome is below.
There were four classes being contested for those that qualified in the 100 MPH Club this year.

100-102 MPH
103-109 MPH
110 + MPH
Street Bike

I won the 103-109 MPH Eliminator (got a good sized trophy and a hat). Then there was a runoff between the Champions of each class for a HUGE trophy. I redlit in the first round of the Championship run-off by -.006.

This was the highlight of the race for me. In one race in particular, a guy with a â€˜70ish Camaro dialed at 12.80 tried to fender race me. He had that fender on me and was playing towards the end, but then he just barely let that fender go at about 1250â€™ (give or take) and then couldnâ€™t get it back

â€˜cause the ZR-1 was pullinâ€™ like a bitch then in 3rd gear. I was chuckling â€˜cause I thought that was what would happen.

Car ran a best of 13.372 @ 108.06 in 4000â€™ air.
