Well Ill give ya a run down on my runs with the typhoon. First lets just start calling me captain slow.... I even went around the burnout box the first run and backed up alittle to clean the tires and forgot i had in reverse and stomped on her a little embarrasing but funny to say the least.

run #1
r/t .113
60. 2.06
330 5.7
1/8 8.9
mph 75.4
1/4 14.23
mph 90.4

#2
r/t .070
60. 1.9
330 5.4
1/8 8.5
mph 80.6
1/4 13.4
mph 100.6

#3
r/t .224
60. 1.9
330 5.4
1/8 8.4
mph 81.4
1/4 13.3
mph 100.8

They eventually made us race the 1/8 because of the wind. It was a steady 30mph headwind. maybe 2 tenths with the wind and get the 60 down and maybe a 12 sec truck. I gotta figure out how the previous owners were runnin high 7's in the 8th. I did have alot of people in the staging lane ask me if it was a real typhoon, what the heck was it, and did it have a 350 in it! I gotta figure out how to launch this thing and get my 60ft down to the 1.7. It was fun for the first time running this thing. now all i need to do is put the h/c package i have sitting in the garage on.
