PLEASE "RIGHT CLICK AND SAVE" thanks to cheatin' chad for hosting this for me, don't mind the guys in the tower, they were a hoot all night! lol!!!! they had fun busting my *****, sorry i didn't dial it up for them. funny thing is that pass gave me #1 qualifier, lol!!!

god i love this $hit!!!!

traction was $hit! only a 1.488 60' on that pass, best was in the second round of elims. it went a 1.481 60' with a monster burnout!!!! and some track bite on the tires!

Definitely nice. I love the car. I've got several videos of it. My favorite would have to be when you had the older cam in it, the camera was in the tower. You did a massive burnout and took awhile to get to the tree and had someone lining you up. Seeing your car launch that hard, lift the tire in 2nd, lay a big patch and slightly pick up the tire in 3rd and then clicking off a 9.77 just left me in awe. [/leghump]

Re: video of my 10.14 pass on a 125 hit :)

thanks guys! well i would agree, any bigger would have been pointless.

reaction, didn't matter it was a qualifying run, i was more concerned with getting the right launch rpm. that is why i was "sleeping at the light"

i am goin to bump it 50 more in a few weeks, but now i have a new issue to deal with, with car running and clutch pushed in i can't get it in gear it almost sounds like the clutch is loose! wtf! oh well, out with the trans tomorrow! well i have 1.5 weeks to get it fixed, that is the next race.
oh the joys, at least it didn't act wierd on me at woodward cruise yesterday!

lol! no pressure Joe, it will be laid out soon enough! i already installed the jets for the 175 hit. i will be trying that out on et drags, middle of september at a good track!

i am hoping for 9.8x's, then before the weekend is up it will probably be back up to a 300 hit!

Cool ,weather is going to get better and better ...Thats why I havnt been out in the last 2 weeks...Your doing it right plus its fun to go out every week and see improvent rather than jump right into it.
