This was my 2nd time out with the glide...

I noticed that I ran out of gear because I was no longer able to lock my converter after my last outing... so we decided to swap out the 4.10's for 3.73's... I was expecting to slow down a little when running on the motor with a 1.76 1st gear and converter that was speced out to handle a 300HP shot... I was really happy on friday night when I beat my previous NA best of 10.3@132 with a 10.1@134... On Saturday morning I did a spray pass with 200HP jets in my ring kit and ran a new spray best of 9.2@148 compared to 9.4@143 my last time out! Here's a video of that pass along with the time slips...

Badass video man. Why do you think you're not hitting 1.3 60' times?

I hit a 1.39 in my previous outing... I think the car needs more spray... the converter is made for a 300HP shot and I have only hit it with a 200HP shot so far...
