We waited all day until 3:30 got one hit left good came off the stop 4.400 seconds later we slowed the opening rate way down to get it a chance to hook up that worked good then when it came full on had to lift hit it again pulled right back to half throttle and eased into it but starting to spin again aborted the run and ran 11.56 at 123.61
The track at Seattle has a know problems for water coming up through the pavement after it rains for months they tried to make it right for us the track personal sure did all they could gave us free rain out tickets and didn't charge for testing if we waited. This was there 2nd bracket day.
Man am I excited waited 2 years for the heads and countless man hours to make it happen and I can't honestly tell you if it's faster or not.
More to come later.
best so far 8.53 @ 158.59 MPH 60'1.240

That's a bummer about the track, Was going to head out myself but I figured with my luck it would rain. Did you only get the one pass?

Bremerton ran both Saturday and Sunday...they have an issue with water coming up through a crack in the left lane, too. A couple of friends ran in the final round of Sportsman on Saturday...I wish I was there either day, but Saturday I was helping a neighbor with his project in my shop and Sunday we had a big gathering for Easter
