License runs

Just finished up my final license runs last night. On the first full pass requiring 9.99 or better the car stood up straight up (too high for my liking) and I short shifted to bring it down. With the glide, that resulted in me running near the full pass it top gear. Happy to say the car still went 9.88 to get the first one done. Final pass the car carried the wheels out nicely and went 1.34 60' and a new PB of 9.78 @ 133. Great accomplishment to get my license complete and new best. Still running the stock bottom end with a great tune by Next Level Performance/Norris Motorsports.

Tom - NHRA, that's the only tracks around here.

Brian - still the 175 shot, but the 200 jets are calling my name

Dave, the place was surprisingly low on car count. Was a good night to get some runs in.

Badass times! I was there last night also, but not for long and left early. I saw you make your first pass but didn't see you car in the lanes afterwards, I figured you had car trouble and packed up. Right before I left I did see you make one more run though, so I guess everything was ok. Next time I'll stop by and say hi.

Turo - after the first half pass I went to the pits to make some suspension changes. If you saw the second run, you'll agree that they might have been a little much.

D - mmmmm, more gas
