Got his last run with my DroidX 10.45@140 mph I think. Got to push his car out on the staging lanes twice too

Dammit, I wish I could have been there. Looking for houses in Va is making me miss all of the fun stuff.

Good job Chad. I think I smell 9.80's on low boost.

he texted me 10.56@116 and it went 111mph in the 1/8. I know my sloppy 9.80s pass went 112 in the 1/8. So yeah once he gets things figured out I think it has 9.70-9.60 in it on low boost.

I still haven't left on the trans brake so they were all 1.7 60'. My 10.45 run I had to pedal it cause it spun shifting into 2nd and shifted way too early into 3rd...... First time out I'm pretty happy with the results thanks to Kris for an A/F dead perfect and Brian's awesome work he had done for me. He had my suspension working perfect. It felt like I was on a cruise down the highway.....Next time I'm going for 9's....All in all not bad for only 9lbs. of boost.

It felt really good after a year and a half of hard work.

Once we verify the timing again with a light we can finish the tune. I think its going to run 9.70@146 once we get it dialed in at 9psi and Chad starts running off the tbrake and 2 step. I am excited to get to see this thing run.

This thing is going to be a monster next year at 15psi. I wish I was going to be up there to see it.

Brian, You are going to have to help him with the tune when I move to Va in a month.

Pussed out? hahahaha......This is my first ever car build. I was nervous a wheel might come off! Lol ...... My first run was a 12.12 at 86 letting out before the 1/8 and after Brian checked the log it was never above 80% throttle

Truthfully he dosen't even need it at 9psi with those huge turbos. He isn't creating enough heat at that boost level. Each turbo is only putting out 4.5psi. LOL

I saw the tune you had in your car and it would have picked up a lot but I wanted to make sure he made it down the track the first time. LOL

We will get more agressive with it the next time.

I'm thinking next time out I will pull the chute. The brakes faded bad at the end of that run.
