My friend Chris, our women, and I went down early Sunday morning to Atco to do some early time trials. We both had goals in which we surpassed with conditions that the usual racers find unfavorable. Track temp was in the high 30s, wind gust of 25+ mph and on and off snow flurries.


We took my Silver S3r with toys out first with our Mickey Thomspon Slicks and ran three runs. My first run was the second pass of the day and I opened up with a 11.8@115. The second run I just looped around and went back in line in which the car got a little heat soaked but still ran a 11.8@115. Slicks were set at 11psi and I adjusted them down to 9psi. At this point I went back around and let the car cool down. With the car cooled down, I got back up to the line and launched at only 4200RPM because I had issues with the slickers not being able to hold in first too well. This video says the rest....

To sum it up I was on stock S3 wga hitting 18-19lbs with HOM holding with a quater tank of MS109. Mods are as follows...
Mopar Stage 3 with Toys (Steel Wheel)
Mopar Short Throw Shifter
Mopar Cold Air Intake
Mopar Stage 1 Lowering Springs
Mopar High Performance Clutch
Mopar High Performance Spark Plug Wires
Needswings V6 Cutout with Mccord Plate
PSI FI Direct Fit FMIC
JMB Pressure Pipe Package with HKS SSQV Bov
Prothane Motor Mount Inserts


Three flawless runs on the Silver was good enough for me. Now it was time for Chris to play with his Stage 2 with toys set up. Chris only has Stage 2 with toys, Needswings V5 cutout, 3" O2 Housing, Forward Motion WGA setup on stock lines, AEM Cold Air Intake and a short throw shifter. The first time ever at the track with his SRT and the first time ever obviously with slicks on he cut a 12.4@108. All of us very excited with the time, he rounded for another pass. Once again the video will speak for itself...

Here's a video of the snow when we were swapping the slicks as soon as I finished my 11.6 pass. Youtube isn't doing the video justice but watch closely you'll see it.
