I'm calling 8's by the end of the month....any takers?!?! Haha. Your car never ceases to amaze me. Like you said, you were shooting for a 10.0 car not even thinking about a reliable high 8-second/low 9-second drag car.

Like they say......Git 'er done!

I know you wanted an 8.99, but those are killer runs. 150mph,150mph,150mph......that's big power....It's an 8 second car..just needs the hook.

Is the F1 2 tenths and 2 mph stronger than a D1?

Nice. Congrats. 8's will be yours with the new tires. Ever look at running DR's? or Hoosier R's? Anyway congrats again.

How much longer until your track closes? Our track's last day is today - and of course my car is broken. Temp's have been in the 50's-60's during the day, 40's at night
