Nice job Larry. Do you remember what Badhawks new best was?
I'm probably stopping by in the next few days to order a few things. Maybe a better set of wheels studs should be on the list too?

I ran the new best in Jeff's Hawk, but was hoping he would post already.

11.07@121.9

The 60 was a 1.52 and he cut a 1.46 earlier in the day. The car came on the tire, spun a touch and went right out of the groove and I quickly got it back into the groove.

soooooooooooo close to his goal

Yes it was a good day at the track for some of us and not so good for others.
All in all I'm pretty happy even though I didn't get that golden 10sec na slip but was oh so close. I also had a new best sixty went a 1.46 first pass then I could not duplicate went 1.50, 1.51, 1.52 on the other runs. If I decide not to spray the car I might have the converter loosened a little more. I went with a circle D converter and I would have to say it worked very well.

Larry your car is flying congrats on the new best.

Mike sorry you broke.
