This event was lots of fun. Had 12 cars run in the bracket. Bad35thSS took home first.

I'm happy my car ran well and nothing broke. First time out with the new 402 and without locking the converter it ran 11.37@120mph

That's great, Jeff. Dave (Sled28) builds strong motors.

Congratulations to Ian.

I was taking it a bit easy off the line inorder not to red light. Story here but got a 1.73 60 foot. But other runs were 1.68 to 1.70

Great ET Jeff! I bet with some more seat time and some tweaking, you might just get a 10.99 out of it!

Nice ET man! Props Some guys from our site went to TMP and the tree was down as with the clocks, and they were still charging $ 30.00 to race!

No not yet. I've been enjoying my ATV too much, I guess. I lent my skinnies to a buddy but I'm sure I could get them back for a nice, cool fall run. I still have to get a nitrous run in with that kit I got from you.

Thanks Pat. I have a few things in mind.
Remove the strut tower brace, and the front swaybar.
Replace the rear swaybar with a drag one.
Maybe borrow a drag pack with skinnys.
QA1 front drag shocks.
Relocate battery to trunk, the tray is broken.
Hook up the TNT ring kit and spray a 150 or 200 shot.
