Looking good man! Hopefully you'll get to race again later this year, and I can go up and watch.

What did it run?

I'd probably get a poster size pic of that if it were my car.

I already have the trans brake in, just don't have a 2 step installed yet. I'll need to do a track rental to dial in the trans brake so I opted to just footbrake for the day.

I did. I tried a 4000 rpm launch last september. I blew the tires off and aborted the run. Just sucked letting go a button and flooring it at the same time.

I got a 1.35 60' on the footbrake so I said **** the tbrake
