Default New N/A 6 Speed Record 9.11@150!!!

We finally got the race car down the track after all of the engine problems we have been having. We went our best last night at No Problem Raceway in Baton Rouge, LA.

9.11@150MPH
97% Humidity
DA: 1231 above
Barometer: 30.09

This is with a STOCK GEAR SET that has been face plated. 1st pass off the trailer with the help of MADMAN and CO. suspension.

YEAH

I will post the video tomorrow. The track was slick since the humidity was so high.

Thank you. The bad thing was we only got 2 passes. We got there to late and broke a rocker arm adjuster. We decided to leave the car with Brian and will be heading to HRP in 2 weeks when we get the car back. I feel a 8 second pass coming

HAHAHA. I didn't post all of the other videos. The 9800 video really was only that long. I got the camera out of the trailer this morning just need to download at the shop. Maybe I will cut the video to just the launch and the time to mess with ya JK. I promise I will post it in the morning.

The damn car gained weight somehow. 3315 and we went with a light block and removed weight. That is one reason we took it to Madman. There is no way it weights that much.
