This is how we roll in Texas! 
This was Saturday, May 19. We were running our fourth points race of the season. We got lucky and made it to the semis. We lost running a 10.20 with a 0 on a 10.20 dial. We cut a .012 light to his .000 light on 11.76 with a 0 on a 11.75 dial. Pretty close footbrake racin.
We set a personal best though, 10.20 with a 0 @ 129.64 mph (previous best was a 10.27 with an 8 at 131.09 mph). The fastest mph of the eleven rounds of racin was 131.41 mph.
The full run was as follows;
RT .012
60ft 1.349
330 4.133
1/8 mile 6.456
mph 105.83
1000 8.479
1/4 mile 10.200
mph 129.64
DA 1605, temp 67.9, humidity 70%, BP 29.44
I want to thank LME for the great motor and all of your support, Madman/Thunder Racing for all your support, and last but not least my wonderful wife "FEAR".

Congrats on the good bracket racing but you always seem to do very good. How did the other guy beat a .012 package when he was off his dial by .01 , he must have been .001 on the tree??
Caveman he was .000 on the tree.

Coach! Nice job on the bracket racing man!Bummer about losing with a twelve thousands package in footbrake, but I had the same happen to me last year. My .013 package got beat by his .009, in round 2 no less!
How are ya doing in points? I agree with Madman, the front end needs some TLC from all the wheels-up passes!

Points;
In 1/4 mile points, I am in 30th or something. I have missed 2 races, and went out in the 1st round the other 2. Had to buy back last weekend.
In 1/8 mile points I am in 2nd place after 1 race.
The front end looks the way she does, long story short, The Wife "FEAR" ran the car down the drive way into the parked van at the end of it.
