well headed back from georgia and the chp nationals. i competed in real streer. the car ran decent all weekend despite fighting track conditions and my beat up and tired slicks. ran a 8.97@153 on friday in testing with a shitty 1.37 60'. then saturday ran my 3 qualifying passes on the 82jet. went 9.06@150 and 9.089@148 - both passes the 60' were still less than par at 1.32/1.33. Eric from MWC was able to get great footage of the car leaving the line and its killing the sidewall pretty damn good. the slicks have bout 50+ runs on them and 2yrs old. the positive side of things are the car is rollin steam on the 82 jet. went a new best 1/8th et and mph of 5.79@121 as Steve from Legend Racing started to put some timing back into the tune up. unfortunately i lost first round today with a 9.08@149 to a 8.46@163. Big thanks to Steve at LRE, Eric at MWC, and Steve at IS for all there help. looking forward to getting new tires and gettin that 60' back in order and a 8.8x pass on the .082jet. Then we'll put the 300 back in it and hopefully take it a step further.

All I can say is Nick's car is As Advertised! The car is setup perfectly and runs like a beast. Very consistent and gets down the track beautifully! Can't wait to see it with the .12x jet in her

Thanks Andy! Nick works his butt off to keep that car nice and has been doing a killer job driving it lately. We think the 14th and 15th of this month she is going to get "cut loose" with the big jets in it. New tires, bigger jetting, we are expecting big things!

Thanks Andy! Yep im having a blast. Only down side is i want to quit my real world job and race everyday. Cant wait to get some tires on it and let her eat in good air. I think it'll go 8.8x/8.90's on the 82 jet if i het the 60' back down. but im not sure i have the patience im itching to try the .120 out.
