Default New XF drag strip world record!

Just kidding...

I did go to the track today, the family followed in the Sequoia track support vehicle.

Traction was terrible, the JR Drags were running so prep was not good. There were about 100 of them so me and the 6 other cars that turned up had to wait 45 min then get 5 runs and wait another 45 min.

Speedworld is pretty awesome they have a gocart track, RC airplane field, Moto cross pit and dirt racing track. We watched a bunch of RC planes between races.

My best time was below

RT .5958
60ft 2.1450
1/8 mph 88.81
1/8th et 8.4753
1/4 mph 112.73
1/4 ET 12.8505

I had a best mph of 113.35 mph

MY SAE correction factor was 92% DA of 2702 which may not have any effect on a supercharged car. Launching was impossible. If I left full throttle wheel hop was bad enough the car turned on its own traction control. Part throttle bogged in 1st. I tried a trick of punching it then lefting slightly then flooring it again and got my 12.8.

I beat a old school GTO that sounded healthy, a motorcycle that ran a 13.2 and lost to a Mustang Cobra with NOS and Supercharger that ran a 11.16 wow.


My wife taped the race with the GTO but somehow her phone didn't flip so its upside down?
