I am glad to say testing this Saturday went great. We took 2 Vettes and a truck and all made 5 or so passes each without an issue. What a relief. I am so glad I made it past the 60ft. lol Breaking rear end parts sucks. Shane ran his first 8.80 with more in it. I made my first 2 stage 200 shot pass white smoking the tires off the line to run a 8.4x. and Jay was able to get a good A/f reading under boost. Me and Shane are taking this setup to the shootout next weekend. If I can get some traction I should be able to hit that 7 sec zone. My tires are ****. They have no holes left and this is the third year for them. I dought I will get any traction. I am kinda glad for that cause the tire spin saves the drive train. I am working on Todds car this week to get him ready for next week. I think it should run some 8.90s on motor. I have no clue what it will do on spray. Hint Hint. lol. J/K.

I would like to see Able's car show up but for some reason he is avoiding everyone. His car should run some 7.90's of the trailer foot braking it.

All EFI cars need to show so we can try to get this class back on track.
