Default Some boosted cars at the track

Went to Cecil last night to watch some friends run. 1fast bird was doing his licensing passes in his twin turbo 402 TA and 2ktransam was doing some testing of his new setup in his truck

Fireball was there too lending some knowledge and helping out 1fast bid. Also got to meet BoostedOne

It's always good to put a name with a face.

Was the track prep bad? Lot's of spinning happening there.

The 2 passes that he spun where the last 2 passes of the night. It was getting late and the track was fading. Plus Cecil has OK prep but they don't do a much for the week night TnT.

I forgot to mention the truck is a forged 370 with a tc78 I think

It's called letting out at the top end..lol, last pass looked real good on the launch but he got out of the groove real quick too, would have been intesting to see what's it really got in her on a good prepped track day.

You can scrub alot of MPH without picking up much ET in the last 200'.

When you are going for your license you do 4 partial passes. So that was letting out and getting on the brakes. I forget his 1/8 ET but I know it was 114mph

Yeah it would have been a great pass if he would have run out the full 1/4
