[QUOTE=Frost;10057038]Nice! Glad to hear that the night ended well.

12 MPH after the 1/8th? Do the math for tire and gear and see what RPM you should be going through the traps at assuming no slip. Divide the RPMs that you actually went through the traps at by the RPMs that you figured from gear/tire/no slip to find out what % slip you are getting up top.[/QUOTEthe timing eqp had a problem.he didnt run 124 to the 1/8th as all his others were in the 107 to 108 range,and he doesnt have the power nor the 660et to support 124.Just a timing misque.Happens from time to time at bako.Ive had it happen to me.

That 124mph 1/8 is just a glitch most likely, happens.

But congrats on some decent runs, just need to get the 60' worked out and it will be flying.

Nice runs. Any idea what the DA was and how much power you were making at that boost level?

Congrats on the time!

No way, it's as real as the slip I have that says I was doing 439 MPH in the 1/8, I just hit the brakes because I was afraid they were going to boot me for not having a chute.

The temperature was probably in the mid to upper 90s, and the last run was probably 80 to 85 degrees. Not sure how to calculate the rest of the DA.

Car went 137.xx so do the math on a calculator for a 3660 lb car.

Very nice times. Agree that w/ some lower 60' times you'll be seeing single digit timeslips
