Last year in my SHO I ran this event and my times were two tenths slower than they had been at other tracks, so I was not competitive. I was expecting the ST to struggle to run 12.0, so I pulled the rear captains chairs and spare tire (60lbs each seat and probably 35 for tire/jack).
This was first qualifying run launching at 2500 rpm. My next three qualifying passes, I tried 1700, 1900 and 2100 rpm launches.
The goal is to average 12.0 across three runs without averaging under 12.0 per run.
My total times were 35.989, missed out on winning the event by .011
Winning time averaged 12.03, so I had almost an extra tenth to play with after the initial .011 I missed by. So close yet so far! Was happy with how quick it ran, can't wait for their next event in July in Martin Michigan.
My class was one explorer, one capri, one edge, and every single other vehicle was a mustang. LOL!
