Congrats Ray on that 8.3 pass!!!
Thanks John.
No I didnt post up. Here is the slip and a video that waterproofer took. Still has a lot more in it. I made the first pass on friday with my 8.90 index tuneup in it. I made some fuel changes and wanted to make sure it did what I needed, it ran 8.86@156 so I was good to go. I turned the boost up to 20psi and added another pound to the launch boost and she really ripped 8.39@166 . 60' was not there yet so I turned the boost back to 15# and started working it down. I did run an 8.52@160 with a 1.29 60' on 16 psi sunday morning. I put more boost on the launch and put the main boost back up to 20# for eliminations. That was when I had the transmission issue. This was at #3750 race weight.

One of my favorite passes that I saw over the weekend. 
10 to 11.5 psi and 4300 on the two step.
I have a few more suspension tweeks, I think I can get a few more thousanths out of the 60'. would like to get from the 1.29 currently down to 1.25. I dont think I can go much further until I get some weight off this hog

Congrats on the run Ray, your car is VERY impressive and I know you will have your 7 sec timeslip with a little more weight reduction and some more test passes.
Good to see you out there PSJ! Your always fun to hang with.

Thanks Steven, lets see that tramp stamp....
Andy's car was at 3520 at the race, the next 100 lbs will have to be the glass.
Ray you are running an ERL block? You gotta pull those two dead hookers outta the trunk.

Thanks for all the kind words!
I do have the ERL superdeck1
I need to get the 6 bolt heads to go with it.
The hookers got to stay.
I like to crack a "cold one" every once and a while
