Just wanted to post and say Conrgats on the Drag Week trip very impressed with the car and set-up.

Also thanks again for the help/advice in one of my threads!

Hoping to get similar results out of my car w/ a similar set-up (i'm taking notes lol )

Especially in regards to the coils you're using as i plan to run my track car on straight alcohol.....

I'd assume you're running a 6 bolt set-up but can't help but ask as mine is a ERL superdeck 1 4 bolt w/ 1/2" studs

Hope you're rested up now!

Pretty sure we lined up on day 5, right after bailey ran a single. You were in the left lane and pulled 3 mid track wheelies right next to me. It was awesome. Really nice car man

Thanks! And you are very welcome. I'll help in anyway I can. And yes I'll using the 6 bolt ERL block but I'll used and beat the crap out of their 4 bolt blocks and had good results so go for it. Btw, I'm going on Drag Weekend next month for some more sleepless nights. :-)

That was a wild pass! This car makes stupid power and I was having a hard time keeping it on the ground. I have in car video of that pass and I'll post it once I edit it some.

Woot fun ride. Just curious, why is your steering wheel mounted so crooked?

I changed my steering linkage a while back and never re-clocked my wheel... I never even notice it. Easy fix, just gotta remember to do it some day.

Love the wipers! I had to do the zip tie mod on mine to keep that from happening.
"Sure the wipers work officer. Let me hit about 140 and I'll show you......"

Cool car!

^Glad I could help^ I had a freakin' blast, and talking to all the folks that came by was a big part of it too. A lot of the time I was rushing around trying to get another pass in but there were times I got to shoot the bull with folks in the pits... Lots of fun, can't wait to do it again.
