Default testing with some promising results

Well we went out to do a little testing spent two days at Atco and a day at New England. We made real good progress with a new personal best of 7.21@205.91. We were super happy with this run because it was on soft tune 1.33 60ft 3.30 330 4.82 1/8 @ 163.04. We knew the car had more in it. We headed up to New England hopeing to lay down that 6 sec pass. First shot off the trailer netted a 1.24 60 ft and a 4.76 @ only 161 We lifted the head we were done but we went home with our heads up high knowing that the 6 second slip is right there. That 4.76 would have been at least a 7.03.

Special thanks to my crew Robby and Tod, Dennis @ DMC he has got this car working, Job Spetter JR. No one better on the laptop and Rich over at PCHS this engine is just killer.

Yea its not a big deal we saw it going a bit positive under high boost. Should have held off and freshened her up but we were just to close to making it happen. Richie will have her rebuilt in no time.

You guys should try and hit Cecil its a great event. I am sure we will meet up soon enough lots of killer events coming up 1320x, Shake Down, ORTC, Orlando and World cup. I would expect to see you guys at some of them

Making 2500hp can do a lot of things...lol There isn't much room for error on the tune up with as big a bore either.Not a lot of meat between those cylinders. Either way, we will see a 6 sec pass soon i'm sure of it. Major has a great team and mr spetter isn't new to pushing these drag radial cars over barriers.
