BTW, I ran a best of 14.508 at 95.54mph at 10:18pm on 8/26/03 - not exactly lighting the world on fire, but was a lotta fun. Also, I never beat on my Deuce, it's simply gets a little exercise now and then. Anyone who's driven a Deuce knows that they will load the plugs pretty quickly unless you keep the rpm's up - anyone seen Frankie's plugs the other year?


[/ QUOTE ]That night/evening was pretty bad for me. I couldn't launch the car at 2gs without it bogging! I think my best was a 14.7 at 98! Took it out a year later and walked it out of the hole(in the right lane) and turned a 13.8 at 105! Had to go home as I had no helmet. That's on an M20 with an open 3.08 rear. Not too shabby if I do say so myself. Sucks to be stuck in traffic for 3 hrs though! Found that out the day I came home from Jersey when the Eagles and the Phillies had a game the same day. Ok, M. so you were giving her some breathing room. I gotcha!
