Default DLM Racing 9.8@138 pass

Only pass I got to make today due to weather, didn't do to bad but still had a light stutter off the line. All in all ran a 9.8@138 with a 1.5 60', still have to do some work on that part and get it down more but still happy with finally getting in the single digits.

Thanks, yea I'm still on a learning curve with her but will have her figured out soon enough. Today I did some tinkering and noticed my meth wasn't coming on right, it was coming on around 13psi so wasn't using very much at all but still pulled off that time. Fixed it and now it comes on at 6psi so that should definitely help.

Awesome pass! Get that 60' down a bit and you should hit mid 9's.

Yea this was only my 4th pass down the track on the new set-up so I'm still doing a lot of learning. Thanks, I'm very happy with her

Damn, is the car a heavyweight? My car would trap 142 with only about 700whp. Just wondering, not hating.

Last time I had it weighed she was around 3300-3400lbs, I also haven't gone full throttle off the line yet, done 1/2 off the line them full past the 100' mark, I'm still doing alot of learning on this setup. I haven't gone all out yet.
