  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Your right, however it took a couple of races for everyone to see that I didn't know what the hell I was doing! :pp I appreciate all of the help and I will admit that dropping my time by .15 sec was worth the 1600 mile round trip! :cool:

    Hey, I found the top ten PS results from 1998 floating out there on the internet.

    Bob Karakashian's 12.52 @ 107. and John Chamberlain's 12.57 @ 110. were the top ET and MPH for the event.

    This year we had 10 cars under Bob's ET and 16 cars faster than John's MPH....in 6 short years.

    Before someone brings up ringers and cheaters, I'd like to point out that the even has grown in popularity and that more guys are building a car for these events than there were just 6 years ago.

    Hell, Miller has built more than 6 cars for the event in less that 6 years.

    I am guessing the steady march of cars into the 12's is just the competative nature of racings, and guys finding the best combos to maximize, and not a lot of hidden from tech tricks.

    Given the fact that many of the fastest cars are certified, I think once you go past the "PS is BS" first glance look at the numbers, it really does make sense that the cars today are that much faster.
