Default 8.08 @ 172 in the LT1

Didn't hit the 7, but we did go home 250 dollars richer for having the fastest ET of the night I'll try to compile some videos this weekend. We only made one hit. The weather sucked, so it's defintely got more in it.

Now, but we have plenty of witness's, including HRP who will vouch for the run. But it's no big deal. Just wait till we run the 7. This was just a little bull crap run.

Was that still at 16lbs of boost? Your car ran 172mph in Atlanta with that 20-25mph wind, I thought for sure it would have gone 175 without the strong wind. Great run

Thats not good enough Chuck. Without an actual video, there is no real proof that it was run, right?

Also, make sure the timeslip date is correct, HRP is notorious for having way wrong dates on their slips.



Congrats Rick, you should go run on a Wednesday when they have the times up.

Actually There are several videos of the run but you know as well as I do that HRP doesn't light up the score board on Fri. nights. But we can post some of the videos and you can frame by frame the run while watching the clock on the video camera. I belive that ZAC from the G-Force has an awesome video. For all the doubters, get in the next lane but I DOUBT anyone will.
