Default New Best NA 9.57@140.28
Went to the track last night to break in the new clutch disc. Have to seat the clutch in before i can really hit it hard. That is why i went NA last night.

I got wheelie bars on the car over the winter and anti roll bar.

It was the first wednesday night open so not much rubber down after the 330ft. I was steering it the entire night.

On my 4th and last pass i got a new best.
60ft-1.358
330ft 3.924
660ft 6.082
mph 113.79
1320 9.575
mph 140.28

The car was slidding all over the place up top and i didnt want to let out of it but i had to peddle it just a little bit to keep it straight.
I doubt if i didnt lift it would have been much better. Maybe a 9.50-9.52.

I bet i could go even faster if i changed the car around to go NA but its a nitrous car. Gears/cam/compression.

Next week is a track rental and i may just make 1 more NA pass to see how the track is and then its all spray for the rest of the season.

We were there on Sunday and it was pretty bad both at the line AND up top.

Time to up the shot.
Congrats on the new N/A personal best.

Looks like Mark is now on the bump of the top 25.

Not with that gay mustache of yours. You might be considered better looking at the blue oyster club.

After breaking the new clutch in last Wednesday, it was time to put the bottle back in.

New best today for Barry. 8.886 @ 154

Still on a single stage .026" jet.
