Congrats on the impressive times Justin! Both of the cars look badass, and I am not surprised at how fast the blower car is coming around. I've experienced your abilities first hand, so I know what your capable of 
I think that blower car is gonna surprise us all.

That was the 2nd full pass was the 4.90. The first pass I lifted early and went a 5.46 then the next pass the throttle cable broke. For the 3rd pass I ran it all the way thru the first time for a 4.98 then the 4th and final pass was a 4.90. I'm very happy for the first time out especially not knowing what I'm doing with it.
So, I guess the question is now are you going to step up to the X?
If the X goes through in the X275 ranks of being legal, you will probably get a weight break don't you think?
I'm sure you haven't even poured the coals to that thing yet, so it's probably too early to even start considering anything else than being happy.
Were you doing a Steve Jackson "hold it to the floor for 700 feet" impression when you broke the throttle cable? LOL sounds like it!

If the X remains legal I will more than likely end up getting one. I hate to change to one right now since I haven't really even gotten to run this F1R very much. We will have to wait and see how things go. If thats what it takes to run up front you can bet I will try and get one.

Verdad Gallardo Just has a lot more power than the nitrous car and turns up a lot quicker. As for hitting the nitrous in the burnout box I have only ever seen one person do that and I'm sure he will read this thread.

Car is killer in person! Saw it last week in Ga. Im curious what angle your lca's sit at in that hole at ride height? I know your car is pretty damn low.
Congrats on build its a killer ride for sure! Good luck with it!

Thanks, it doesn't have much angle in it but it does still run uphill towards the body. I think it had about 1* in it.
