How much damage did it do? Did it unload the back tires?

One of the track officals said he saw all 4 tires off the ground when the bumper hit.

Broke the oil pan, tranny housing and the headers are pancakes.

What were all the incrementals on the ET slip? Or should I ask what were your best incrementals for the day?

great launch BTW!

Hey, didn't you once run with the MSRA in the DOT class? I remember racing against your car.

325/50's right?

I'm seriously considering a set in place of the Mickey's for next season. Just gotta decide to either stay with DOT, or step up to PSI for 2007.

You going to Cecil next Saturday?

EDIT: Oops, missed the breakage part. Guess your gonna be down for a while making repairs. Sorry to hear that.

That was the 1st pass it was a 1.44 60' ... went on the bumper and broke alot of ****. Dont think it made it to the 330' marker.

Yes I did run in that class once at Mason Dixon. Yes 325/50's

I dont think I'll be running it again til next season.

Its leaving on a 150 shot and carries the front 3 ft or so 50-70 ft out normally... We think the second stage might have came on when it went up though

You sure it was spinning with the 1.44 60'? Every time I spun with the D/R tires, my 60's were in the 1.6 to 1.8 range depending on how long I let it go, but on good passes, it's between 1.32 and 1.34.

Any chance the front end stayed up long enough to break the 60' clocks with the rear tires? that might make more sense to why it had a 1.44 60'. Unless your using a digiset timer to delay the hit which would slow the 60's some compared to leaving with the nitrous full on.

Sounds like it's running quite well. I'm still hoping to squeek out a 9.5x this season before I park the car. Best so far is a 9.62 @ 138.8. That's with a small 461 N/A bbc weighing 3450 lbs on 325's.
