    I havent weighed it but based on the weight of your shadow, I was guestimating 2860 with me in it.

    Now I'll have to weigh the Daytona! It sure feels like a pig compared to any of our other cars.

    There is a but to this...the clutch was slipping. First pass, the clutch spun at the line. I let it cool for a while and went up with no burnout and ran the 13.97. Clutch seemed to hook, but it smelled pretty bad so it was still slipping...likely on the shifts. I tried one last time after another long cool down. This time, I wasnt next to a loud car and could hear it torque convertering a bit on the launch and on every shift. It was nearly an identical pass at 14.01 @ 94.33.

    The number I had in mind was a 13.80. Maybe next time!

    Thanks for playing Guess the ET!
    Hey I guessed 13.9@97
