new record reset...and new all motor p.b.

i made 3 motor passes 10.500, 10.49, 10.509 , between 133.3 mph and 134.4 mph. car is running great!

then in went the bottles..... you can turn the video off after the pass is complete nothing else exciting to see.

enjoy, this has been a couple years in the making. but worth every moment put into it!

step 1 - break old record of 9.089 @ 155.07 mph, with a horrible 60'

I checked it out on the other forum. I'd just like to say CONGRATS, that was a very cool and hairy looking pass. I've been following your progress for years and realize how much hard work, long hours and money goes into something like that.

Doing pretty good. Had both hips replaced last year so I get around way better and I'm not in pain all the time. Let's me concentrate better when racing, well enough that I won a Street tire Shootout this year.

How's the wife and babies?

Congrats! Have you ever pulled the chute yet, or is it just a requirement at that MPH? Thanks for carrying the LT1 torch.
