Default Another new best. 11.08 @ 125.5

Well guys, it starting to come together. We took the car to Cecil VIA trailer and boy did it make it a lot easier. Pulled it off the trailer and I was ready to race. No changing tires, putting short belt on, car wasn't hot..

I never really got the car to hook. But I was running 11.15, 11.16 a lot but the car was spinning. The bright side to the that was, I was making 125 mph passes all day. My highest MPH of the day was 125.8.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

My 11.08 went something like this

60ft 1.55
330 4.61
1/8 7.12
MPH 98.36
1000 9.28
1/4 11.08
MPH 125.5

I was real happy with that. The car should hopefully see a 10 in the fall. For now, I'm going to put the 17" wheels back on it and enjoy..

Also, the car wieghed in at 3400 with me in it.

Cya guys.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

You were running great. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Just remember I was kicking your *** in the semifinals; I had you the first the first 300' <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" /> but then you just walked past me giving me a up close and personal view of one of your 11.16 & 125 mph passes. Your car just pulls like a ****. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Moose-
Like I told you at the Track....I was all excited about my 121 mph traps....and then I saw you bust out the 125.8!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> Incredible! I love it when the people around me (that don't know you) say: "Damn...he must be sprayin'!!" All I can do is laugh. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Moose,
Only had a few chances to watch you run: WOW very impressive! Not only the car but your driving ability, as well.
10's are coming...for sure!

Moose what can I say that everyone else said to u.That is SICK MPH....

Safe to say u have 10's in the bad come the fall and who knows u might get a cool night in the next few weeks and do it sooner.

I gotta say I was bummed not to make the event.All u guys sound like u has alot of fun.

Chucks car seems VERY impressive too
11.18@123 using a 3.73 is IMRESSIVE if u ask me,and a 10.1 on spray is even more amazing.God I cant wait to run my car again

Congrats to all the guys woo ran well

Congrats Moose, it's great to see your car running so good. What rpm do you cross the finish line at ? Do you hit the limiter ?

Damn that is some awesome mph! I think your car is one of the most impressive on the board. Good luck on DRIVING your car into the 10s. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

What gear/tire combo do you run??

Thanks,
Justin

Abdulla and Jsears8-- I tryed to run a 4.30 gear with 26" tire. i could not get it to hook. A buddy let borrow his 27" Quick times last week. They hooked, I bought a set.
So I'm running a 4.30 gear with 27" x 11.5 x 15 Quick time.. They seem to work

Tony-- Thanks. Hope to have a video up soon. Also, good luck with the new motor, looks like its going to be a monster. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

JS-- Was upset you couldn't make it, but totally understand the work stuff. Hope to see you at Atco or Cecil soon.

Mic5ey-- Thanks for words of encourgement as always. I'm going to be email you about your suspension stuff. Just curios what you have done to 60ft so well. And also, I'm going through the traps at 6600..

everyone else, thanks for the help and kind words..
