Default New MPH best...

Went to Evadale Texas final Madness race this past Saturday..It was cold and cloudy all day but the air was good.(-800) I was looking for a low 10.0 but Saturday was not the day to get it..We needed a little sun to warm up the surface but like I said earlier it stayed cloudy and the air temp never got above 48*..I did run a new MPH 130.98 and got one hell of a launch picture !!

I think he was getting ready to cover his eyes because my dumb *** lined up crocked again...In my old age going straight is getting harder and harder to do..

Hey but at least that Madman suspension is working good these days...

Seems like only yesterday i was running that 11.5@117 back in the day in that car Hard to imagine the car is what it is now but it looks bad *** and with the right temp. you should see your 10.0s and i would not be surprised if you went a 9.9x come febuary or march when the weather gets even better.

My 60's are normally in the high 1.20's low 1.30's..On that pass I tripped the 60' clocks with the back wheels with a 1.41..

The setup is all Madman's stuff..We are using QA1 single adjustable shocks,Afco 150lb springs, Madman lower control arms and Panhard rod..Also using his swaybar setup and TQ arm...
