Tell them to try again at Tri-State tonight. BLWNTA is going to try a 700 rwhp run (with a ten bolt & 6 speed). I'll also be trying again for those elusive 10's. 98CustomSS, your running too right?

As far as the 178 MPH trap goes, last night we turned the boost down so we could get a full pass out of it, with the boost up higher it would just get all over the place going down the track. I will be at tri-state tonight.

Running 170+ mph @ Tri State scares me. When my old car was trapping 120mph the end of the track came up prety fast. I cant even imagine 170... even with a chute. LMAO

You're right about that. I have to use the whole runout to try and not warp my brake rotors.

The one thing I DO like about tri state is that if you are trying to get a car tuned in, you can get a WHOLE LOT OF RUNS compared to Ricewater or Muncie
