new best 5.26 @ 141.86 (1/8 mile) slowly but surely making some progress...
Ran at the cecil streetcar shootout this past weekend (drag radial event). 1st qualifier yesterday...shook the tires pretty good at ~1.5 seconds in the run...ran a 5.63 @ 139 (look at the shake marks on the track
)

1st round today, stepped it up quite a bit and ran a new best of 5.26 @ 141 but the other car ran a 5.16
we were dead even by incremental up to the 330' mark...made for a killer heads up race 
60' 1.369
330' 3.511
1/8 5.261
mph 141.86

I was reading the results earlier, and was like DAMN - someone turned the ***** up some.
Kinda pissed I didnt make it down, seems like saturday was one hell of a day after reading some of the numbers that were put up.
Good Job Brian - now, willing to say how much is left in her?

got a bunch down low (takes ~0.5 seconds after launch before the turbo fires off and the the boost really starts ramping). We think we know how to fix that in the tune
We're confident we'll find a 4.9x-5.0x tuneup
