He probably did that during the heads up race after completion of Drag Week.

That is impressive. It's a shame they couldn't give him a little mention at least. That is one clean well prepared nova.

my guess was he had it wrapped up and just went for a crazy pass since the track was hooking-hopefully when he gets back he will tell us about the race
congrats to him, 1100 miles and several 8 sec passes w/o a 50K engine, that's huge

Race organizers don't like it when you build something that crushes the competition. Congrats to Jarrett for a job well done and a fantastic combo that many of us will try to copy. I know my execution won't be nearly as nice though.

Yea since they couldn't even say my name right or anything about our hard work or car we decided to skip out to the bar vs go to their awards ceremony... Thanks for the support and good words guys! Been a long and tiring last 2 weeks but luck was on our side and we got it done. It was miserable and exhausting but we had a blast and couldn't be happier with the car, and combo. Other than breaking the band in trans it was flawless. Going to be on the road for nxt few days but I will be around when I can.

Turned boost up to 22 psi and launched it. All of drag week I was leaving at 2800 rpm and 1.48-1.5x 60' to keep slower than 8.50. Last run I said **** it and spooled it until I blew thru brakes and went for it. Pass was off the foot brake with car weighing ~3400+ lbs. still had hitch on car, tools, bunch of **** in car and almost full tank of fuel. Lol

Man only 22lbs! Very impressive... Was this your first drag week? It seemed to me the announcers talked up returning veterans from previous drag weeks mostly. Either way, screw'em! Most impressive car out there for the money IMO.

I'm glad you ripped off that last run and also went to the bar instead of going to their awards ceremony! Super big fan of yours and your cams!

The DA was really good like 350' so it doesn't take much. It was -60' on my first pass where I had to go easy. If I had that air on last pass it would have been teens.
