Default 5.41@125 with a 1.24 60ft on radials with a APS kit on formula

Friday we mounted 275 drag radials on the car. Went to the 275 Drag Radial shootout and made it to the finals. Go .09 better on the tree, go .02 better in the 60ft, out of him nasty and then the car starts breaking up. Car goes around and then I almost caught back up with him.
We screwed ourselves by overlooking the overboost setting on the eboost. (Set at 18 pounds)
We hit it during a boost spike in the shift.

Not bad for the first outing in a heads up class.

We are fighting some issues on the upper end which caused us to loose MPH. I think we could have gone a 5.3X if we had the good MPH (128) like we had at Crandall last week.

Looking forward to be back soon and try to get that 5.3X slip.

Thanks to Cj for cutting some darn good lights all night long, James V, Johnathon, Ryan for time spent getting the car transitioned form a ET drags to a Drag Radial. We got just as good of a 60ft on the radials as we did on the 28-10.5 slick.

QA1 single adjustable shocks all around.
Wolfe Sway bar
Moser 12 bolt, 3.73 gears, 35 spline gun drilled axles

Launching at SP1 set at 7 pounds. Build boost before prestage, prestage,
as soon as we light up the second bulb we are on the TB that turns on the lingenfelter stutter box. Lights flash, and as soon as we let go of the TB we go to SP2 (12 pounds), then bring in sp3 (16 pounds) .5 secs out.
