Nice setup you got goin' there, congrats on the pass!

Dial it in a little more and get some more seat time and you'll be going even faster. Car rolls out good.

That 10 bolt is on borrow time though! Time for a 9in so you can go ***** to the wall.

Impressive MPH. It still amazes me that such a simple combo can go so fast.

Tell me about it. I never imagined it to go this fast on such low boost. The car must be lighter than I thought.

Definitely some traction problems that night. Midnight madness at the track they don't really prep for.

Thanks man.

Drove the car to the local 1/8 mile track tonight to get a couple of passes. A couple of buddies helped me swap in a friends Moser 9 inch with 3.25 gears, so I had to see what she was capable of. I drove the car to the track on the Mickey's but had the torque thrusts up front. Only made two passes. First pass was through the exhaust and controller off which is the 10-11 lbs. I ran on in the 1/4. It ran a 7.0 @105 ish with a 1.8 60'. I decided to open the cutout for the next pass which put me around 14-15 lbs.

Here's the slip and a video.





I will have it back at a 1/4 mile track on October 5th, can't wait.
