New best... 5.26 @ 141.86 (1/8 mile) slowly but surely making some progress...
Ran at the cecil streetcar shootout this past weekend (drag radial event). 1st qualifier yesterday...shook the tires pretty good at ~1.5 seconds in the run...ran a 5.63 @ 139 (look at the shake marks on the track
)

1st round today, stepped it up quite a bit and ran a new best of 5.26 @ 141 but the other car ran a 5.16
we were dead even by incremental up to the 330' mark...made for a killer heads up race 
60' 1.369
330' 3.511
1/8 5.261
mph 141.86

that was one of the cleanest passes to date on the car. Yes running the Q16 fuel. Made a 1/4 mile pass ~4 wks ago but that was right after the new converter and was still having issues getting up on boost, so it only went 8.25 @ 181 (on a 1.49 60' haha)
