Default New best of 10.40 at 133mph

I hadn't really had a chance to post this today but as you probaby guessed, we went to the track last night. We ran an 11.59 at 116 on motor. The second pass was a 100 shot that yielded a 10.86 at 126. We used VHT on the passes and it stuck great!!! The last pass was on a 100 shot and then another 150 in second gear. The car launched like a bass ***, but spun the tires when he applied the other 150. It still went 10.40 at 133. The dew was very bad. In fact, my camcorder gave me a high moisture level warning and would not allow me to video the runs. The car also twisted very badly on the launch. So, a new weldin sway bar and some halshocks are in need before we head back out there. We figure that the weather alone cost us at least 2 or 3 tenths in addition to the spin in second. So, we can't wait to get it back out. Laters.

When you say 100 and 150 shot, do you mean 52 and 62 n2o pills? Good times btw!
