9.52@142.09 new Lt1 N/A record

DA 2217'
made some changes since north vs south shootout main attention on suspension car only 60 ft a 1.36 on the pass above but car is hooking and sticking down track instead of sticking and breaking loose like it use to..
hopefully the times will improve again in the next weeks despite the heat

That's amazing! I'd love to be running 9's right now! Good to see that your work on suspension / setup is paying off.

i was waiting for you to post after speaking with you earlier this week!

i will be trying that tune up tonight! i have the one i modified from you and cruising around it is not as rich, but can still be leaned out a bit! i will dump in the new program in after a couple of passes with the one in the car now. the air should be ctually really good tonight so i may not make any changes!

congrats again! you've definitely earned it!

If you don't mind me asking, what kind of suspension are you running?

Thanks,
