I took my Mav to the Sunday bracket racing comp at the local track. I didn't really care about the competion I just wanted to race for times. I did make it out of the first round though, but only because I got a by run for having the best reaction time during the qualifying (practice) runs of .003. I did a bit more tuning and am now down to 13.45 as a best time without NOS. The car keeps getting faster every time I go out. I left the nitrous at home but if I would have used a 150 shot of nos I probably could have reached my goal of a high 11 second run. I want to get the motor to run high 12's and then only use a 100 shot to hit the 11 second mark. It would probably be a little faster if I took out the extra seats and my speaker boxes and amps out of the trunk, but then it wouldn't be a true street car to me. Hopefully next week I will finally reach the 11.99 second mark and be kicked out until I get or roll cage.
