Default Another new best !!!!

Well I went back to the track Saturday night and ran in the footbrake race. I made it 5 rounds, had a great time and the car set a new best. 1.36 60ft, 6.54 @ 104mph NA. That is the fastest 60ft she has ever been by alot and that was leaving at 2800 rpm into the stall footbraking. I am very proud of my setup, and the weather saturday was perfect. So I think low 50's is where she will stay.
