Nice job John! Lows 9s will be a breeze this fall. All you need is some traction and cooler air.

Nice to see some track times out of that thing instead of dyno #'s

Guess 8's should be right around the corner with that combo once you hook it in good air

Not that easy is it??

I hope this means you`ll be racing at N vS. I would like to see you or Mike beat my neighbor Eric in Ext Mod. NOT, you guys will have a hard time beating the N2O car from Orlando.

Congrats John, I imagine you gotta be buzzin today Did you get any video of the runs? Sounds like she's running where she needs to be, and you nailed the runs pretty well from the look of the ET's.
