9.44 @ 146.18 mph N2O and 10.74 @ 127.04 mph N/A

here is how the passes broke down

all motor

60 1.493
1/8 6.868
mph 101.53

1/4 10.744
mph 127.04

qualifying round car went 9.54 on a 1.47 60' @ 145.80 mph with a 1/8 mph of 114.98 mph!

n2o

60 1.355 spinning past the 60' marker
1/8 6.070
mph 114.59

1/4 9.441
mph 146.18

when i got back to the pits i noticed that i had a huge n2o leak at the fitting for my purge which is off of the back of the drivers side solenoid! have to reconfigure that for next year. i guess it is one way to cool the intake and valve cover. that would have explained the "burp" i heard in 3rd gear on the pass, i promptly pulled 4th gear when i heard it! at which point it remained in 4th, lol! i actually think i screwed up the key that is in there.

thanks! my launch was delayed that pass, i was more concerned with getting the right launch rpm, and still it was not enough rpm to launch without bogging...i just wish i would've had one more pass on motor!
