Default Well slight new best, and then breakage.

Well Went to Cecil with Mikey, fireball and a few others to try and get into the 10's with the little 346..

First pass, horrible
1.89
11.52
124.89

2nd pass

1.58 (spinning a little)
11.04
126.53

third pass,
Burnout,,
Staged to launch and the 12 bolt went out..
Found the problem later when I got home and I should be ready to go by next weekend.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I'm also going to finally install my Sphon torque arm.. I met Steve Sphon today and thinks with it I should be in the 1.4's with it..

We will see..

Way to go Mike. I'm glad to see your car haulin @ss again. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Wish I could have gone today. The weather was great, but a little windy. Doesn't look like it slowed you down any. I'm really pulling for ya to get that 10 second time slip. Congrats. <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />

Moose,

a 1.4 60' should get you well into the 10's.

126 mph traps completely kick a$$.

Hope to hear the good news real soon.

Moose, is that NA? If so, that is some sick mph for a hyd. cammed 346!

Nonetheless, congrats! Get that thing to stick, and you'll be waaay in the 10's.

That car has always MPH'd like crazy. Maybe it's the driver...or maybe not. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Congrats! Maybe I'll see ya around once I get my truck finished up. I haven't been to the track in a loooooong time to race. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

I sheered the ring and pinion bolts off the carrier so thats what broke..(I was running a spacer because I had a 3 series carrier) I got a new carrier and gears in the truck, so should be ready for the weekend.. I'm also going to install my torque arm and hope that helps 60ft times..
