Uh oh!




Went 8.9X the 2nd, and 3rd pass off the trailer. ****, unprepped track, spinning on the hit and the following 1320ft. Only 16psi. The car definitely has an 8.50 in it on a real track. Turned the boost up to ~21lbs but didn;t go any faster/quicker because the track sucked. Plus the track was full of nothing but clowns running and racing at the "grudge" event.

Can't wait to get some passes in at a real event, where they actually use VHT.

Looks like it was flying to the 1/8th, why only 7 MPH in the backhalf?

Car is moving, and seems to have a bunch left in it

There is no way there 1/8mile trap was working properly.....I could see 127, but NOT 147 lol. Especially considering the track sucked. I peddled the majority of passes, and the ones I didn;t required a lot of steering imput.

Here is a quick teaser video, just raw footage from one of 4 cameras we filmed each pass with. Kinda a different view This was one of the 8.9x passes. Low boost, tune was still super fat.

Until 10pm or so. Fresno. My car was pitted right on the end of the 2nd lane, on the main pit road. Would have been hard to miss! Only pewter 4th gen out there.
