Default 3 N/A bests in a row and "new record"

had many new individual best today... first for lil weather update LOL

BARO 29.39
Temp 64.9
humidity 21%
windy as fug

DA today was between 900- 1114' which was worse than
last weeks 350-400' above


first pass

1.349 60 ft
6.09@113.49
9.56@141.51 (best mph)

second pass

1.347 60 ft
6.087@113.58
9.55@141.33

3rd pass

1.326 60 ft. (best 60 ft)
6.06@113.84 (best 1/8 and mph)
9.541@139.75 (best ET NEW RECORD!!)
car left crooked on launch and I over corrected now I know how important having someone line you up is....anyway that pass would had definately been a low 9.50 if not a high 9.40 pass

still footbrake so i still have the t-brake venture to tackle and put
the puzzle together in one package
biggest key today timing above 6k 1* more up top and it showed everywhere...So looks like I'm going the right way ..anyone curious runs today was at 33.5* total timing ...playing it safe so I'm making small changes

I'll have video up of the 9.56 and 9.55 pass James my camera man had to leave early but footage none the less..
