Joke, sounds like you guys have it going on. Been keeping track of the threads on the __________. Hopefully soon we will have another example of Virginia Speeds work down in Texas.

Back on topic:

Run 2: 4.91 @ 15x
Run 3: 5.80 @ 155
Run 4: .131, 4.84 @ 155
Run 5: .068, 4.87 @ 162 <-New MPH Record! We had 5# too much boost out the back door.
Run 6: .053, 4.82 @ 157 Win in the finals!

We had some movement in the 60', our fastest was a 1.26, we were shooting for 1.20s more in the morning
