Lowered the KOS record to a 4.83 in the 1/8th along with my first 7'S pass !! We had problems Thursday when we unloaded the car and figured out we had pushed out the intake gasket from the previous race...After replacing gaskets(Thanks Rossio)the car idled & sounded like it should...Friday rolls around and we go up for first qualifier and the car is a dud...Go back recheck everything to only find nothing wrong and go to second qualifier with same results...Now we're scratching our head and finally check data logger with it showing something funny going on with the nitrous solenoids...With Tony Russo's(N20 Monster) help we rebuilt both nitrous solenoids hoping last problem was solved !! Out of qualifiers for the day I bought into the no box gamblers race to see if fixed...We put our get down the track tune in and headed to the lanes...First thing everyone said was what you gonna dial and I said to put on whoever we're running dial in(hence the 14.03 dial)...Now I new we would run out of gear & rpm(set at 8300 max)as we're set-up for the 1/8th and sure enough I bumped the rev limiter at the 1000' mark and coasted thru for 7's slip...BTW,my team didn't know I was gonna run it out the back door but just couldn't help myself as it was still pulling like a freight train !! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwo1GYgIAe0record pass https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dSha_nUklg7's pass

Was that the run you had your window down Gary ? Evidently it was my run card for the gamblers race,Lol...And yes I forgot to crank it up as my ride is pretty much all original except for hood & bumpers...plan on putting stock bumpers back on as we have around 45# of lead on the nose and bumpers could replace some of it along with moving it farther out !!

... we're set-up for the 1/8th and sure enough I bumped the rev limiter at the 1000' mark and coasted thru for 7's slip... What does that 1/8 mile ET correspond to for an all-out 1/4 mile pass?
