I saw that car make its first test hit last night and it sounded sick. Theres a lot of tweaking to do on the suspension etc.. but when everything gets worked out that car is going to roll out hard!

Not sure, I know they could not make it out to the Memphis event though.

Don't blame them, rather be safe then have something happen from rushing.

Hope the test hits went well too.

(Anyone hear about Wolfe and his run in north with his car?)

Wasn't there so this is all 2nd/3rd hand knowledge but a 4.79 at 162 (no bars Eek!) and then lost it. cam phone pic I have doesn't look horrible considering the trap speed. Wolfe walked away and was in good spirits after the run. Word is they already had damanged body pieces off the car and were ordering new ones sat morning so they can try to make the houson race this weekend. 60 ft was actually a lil down on that .79 pass they said too!

Just glad no one was seriously hurt and the car is not a total loss.

We made only two 60' hits. The first one it instantly blew the tires off. The second hit I actually turned up the launch boost and slowed down the ramp rate and it made it about 20' before it blew the tires off.

. We hope to have the new intercooler this week and we will be putting the BIG turbo back on it. Hope to be testing in baytown or maby SAR this friday.

They have been busting *** on the car. They already have new rear 1/4 panels in...both sides. A new core support, and a new door. Fenders, hood, front nose is all there. It did some serious damage...bent the motor plate, broke one turbo, bent header collector...just alot of misc. stuff.

They should be in Houston.
