Default NINETRES in NHRA??? 144mph??? Oh yes.

Lagged a bit on the post because I'm lazy and its already hot in Fresno. Got my NHRA license passes out of the way a couple weeks back!!! Had some GREAT air in the mid 60's for my last 2 passes. Baby little T4 ST80 still only running ~11.5--12psi. **** prep. Sacramento had ZERO VHT for the night. NONE. All of their big drums were empty. Plus there were ~150 street tired cars there. Couldn't muster any better than a 1.48 or so 60' all night.

Here are some pics and a slip!










Where that 144mph from.......I don't know! Out of my *** maybe??? I backed it up with a 143.9 though!

can't compare boost to make it run a certain speed...my turd has gone mid 150s at 8.5 psi.
