Fist thing thanks Loki-GT !! fellow member here in the forums, made my life a lot easier yesterday at the track... 
his tips help a lot.
Automatic 10r80 drag mode 3.55 gears.
Mods- Stop the hop Steeda and Lowering springs (stop the hop more useful on the manual cars in my opinion)
Stock Good years asymmetric 265/35/20 500 thread wear :lol:
I'm with Loki in this one, this Good years really do not seem a lot of improvement with lower psi's, last attempt was at 29 psi not my best attempt either but there was not lot of difference after the tire pressure was reduce, the car was hooking really good regardless. Track prep was semi decent at the light, but I was still breaking tires 1-2 and 2-3.
DA 2140
Temp 86 F
Humidity 86%
and some sahara dust in the atmosphere, yes this a thing that happens here in Puerto Rico lol
1/4 best time 12.3
60 feet 2.00
MPH 116
1/8 8.1 (not sure will check with the slip)
Filmed with 1990 flip phone
(having trouble uploading this will try later)
Ill post the time slips later this evening. But It was hot, humid and Muggy. No way to avoid water box. Technique same use By Loky-GT .
Drag mode, SC/TC off, light burn to clean, rev to 1500-1800 rpm's (trying).
4 pases
12.9 Dead take off
12.4
12.3
12.4
It looks so easy on the videos lol, was having trouble keeping the RPM's in check while looking at the xmas tree and keeping an Eye out for crazy turbo honda's going all over the place.
So the launch was iffy at best and my lack of experience was getting in the way. Corrected times in the drag time app was showing 12.1, so maybe I did pretty good for not having being at the xmas tree for over 20 years but this auto transmission cars make you look like a regular racer. Good job Ford!!!!
Thanks and ill post the slips when I get home this evening :ford:
