Default No 9 second pass.. but ALMOST there
I'm waiting to get a few more videos from other angles, but here is the only video I have so far of Matts 10.1 @ 143mph pass. The progressive was set to go from 200hp -> 300hp in 1second. He launched at about 5000RPM and well you can tell what happen from the rest of the video.

We were hoping for a 9.6-9.8 @ 147-150mph, but ended up with this, but it has got the potential to haul ***!

I guess it blew through the clutch. Sounded like it was on a tear to run a good number.

Chris the mph was 144, but yes the clutch does need to be rebuilt! I am going to order a nitrous outlet nano and with the new clutch I should see the 150 traps I atleast hope. Also need to tune the Kit alittle more the car seemed very very rich.
