It also helps to have such a great girlfriend to put up with all this racing crap. Also like to thank Mike at Icon for letting me use his lift time and time again. After tuning the car at murillo's we decided to take it to san antonio raceway to see what we could get out of her. First pass off the trailer was the quickest pass the car had made so far. Then we backed it up with the 7.98 @175mph. Just to make sure it wasnt a fluke and the car was not hurt, we ran it at HMP 3 TIMES and still ran the same 1/8 miles times as we did in san antonio. I do not have a video of it but if anyone on here knows of anybody that was at the track this past friday with a camera please let me know through pms as I would love to have it. Look for us to be back at san antonio next weekend at the Clash of the Titans race.
Big props to all you guys, looks like all the hard work finally paid off. That's badass

Congrats man. I talked to Gray on the phone a little bit ago(I'm in Houston for the week), and he told me about that. That's quite an accomplishment! Again, congrats!

Great work to all you guys I know how bad you all wanted this. Now what you need to do is scoreboard Duke's since you actually have a timeslip, let him know how it gets done in Texas. Way to Team E.F.Racing

Thanks for all the positive feedback guys. Now that we have the car running consistant we'll start to feed her a little more boost like Steven said that was only 20 pounds!

Thanks again Mike for all the help. It would take me twice as long working on the car in my garage if I didnt have your help at your shop!
