Default Race rained out, but a new best last night!

Well after two weeks of trying to get a few issue's ironed out for todays race we finally found the cause of the problem and got it going. Made two passes last night, first pass is a new personal best.

60' 1.400
330 3.861
1/8 5.97 @ 115.97
1000 7.798
1/4 9.365 @ 143.73

Problem was we're trying to get the car to run consistant 9.50's for the real street class. Noyzee played with the fuel to try to hit the number and this is the pass we came up with.

60' 1.441
330 3.968
1/8 6.107 @ 111.22
1000 7.950
1/4 9.530 @ 145.20

Perfect. I even got over me pro tree problems and was able to cut a .073 light. Car was ready to rip today.... and then it got rained out

Huge thanks, to Brad, Mike, Timmy and everyone else who helped get this car ready to run, they put in long hours this week to make it possible for me to even make a pass. And thanks to Brad for the converter... I'm not giving it back

I'll have Video's up a little later.

Congrats Timmy!!!!, glad to see you ran good last night.

At least we went last night and you got 2 runs in. I think you would have run real good today in the real street class but there is always another one in 2 weeks.

timmy, im my 10 years of messing with cars, i never once tried to slow one down. it just didnt feel right!!!!

i so wanted to mess with it a tad, make a few suspention adjusments and bang out a 9.2x last night, but we will do that next time.

as for the converter. it works great in your car, keep it, justgive me my damn $$ so i can get a new one. now im not sure what im going to do for a converter, that one seems MINT!!

anyway, congrats and cant wait till next time.

Nice tree and time.
I was so pissed with todays weather, probablby not as much as you, but I was looking forward to seeing it run.

Look on the bright side Brad, at least you didn't miss another race with your car.

Video of the 9.53 pass. The battery died on the camera right after my burnout on the 9.36 pass... so this is all I've got.
