Hey guys, had a great time in my 3800 pound Red Thirdgen Firebird.
Ended up laying down an 8.85 @ 154 before spinning on the next two passes with two 9.2s @ 153 with a 9.1 average.
One of my friends sent me this pic online...pretty cool.
Great to meet and chat with so many people after the race. I guess it looks slower than it is...

The best line is:
The participant agrees that participant is in the best position to know about the construction and
operation of participant’s vehicle, equipment, and clothing, and whether there has been compliance with all applicable NHRA & NMCA rules.

I forgot to put my net up on one pass this weekend and was pissed at myself. I always apreciate when someone on the line helps remind me. If anthony blatently disregarded the requests he should have been stopped at the burnout box. No safety equipment no pass.
DQ after the fact is BULLSHIT.

If I'm not mistaken they should be they same format. All cars need to conform to the NHRA rule book for class and ET/speed.

What kind of gear ratios/ tires you guys running in the 1/4? I norm run 1/8th with a 3.54/26"tire combo and trapping close to 6k @120+. I'm not sure I got enough gear for 1/4 ?

I'm trapping 142 on the spray. I'm to the point were I'm ready to add a chute. That is the ONLY thing I do not have for the next speed level.
I may try to get it on by Indy. My buddy builds the mount and sells them. He gave me one a while back. Now I need the rest of the stuff for it.
My car will cut killer et's on very low mph. I think 150 mph in my car will be about 8.80 et.
