He actually broke into the 7's. I think it was 7.94. Ran strong and 2 or 3 guys said they saw the front wheels lift.

Yea, the car is running strong, but he just couldn't get the tires to keep from spinning once the fronts touched the ground again. He's looking into some skinnies as well.

HA HA, both times I sat by the line to take a picture of the wheels, they didn't lift. He was getting really close though. I'm sure those guys aren't lying b/c his car was pulling pretty hard, but I wish I could've gotten a picture or video like Bucks.
