Finally,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I don't have any new pics or video yet, but, I went 8.92 @ 152.43 today. It was way less then a clean pass, breaking up at the top of each gear, which we assumed was being too rich? We leaned it out a couple times but no difference. I had .2 delay in the nitrous, and it only went a 1.42 60 ft. According to
" Drag times " the DA was 7600 ft or so today.
I'm still happy, and know we have an .80 easy in it.

Work on that 60' usually whatever you pick up there will double in the 1/4 id say you can go 60's or 50's....wow that car would flat out FLY at a better elevation

CONGRATS AGAIN

Awesome job, 8 seconds passes up on the mountain are nothing to be taken lightly.

Thanks ! At the last heads up race we ran, the winning car went 8.96. There are a couple cars that have dipped into the .80's and evan a couple in the .70's, but not consistently. I at least now have some hope of going a couple rounds.

I agree. My best 60 ft time is 1.37 on the rear tires. Just equaling that 60 ft. time would get me a 8.80 something.

Congrats on the 8 second pass Dave! It was cool to see it in person! Your car was hauling the mail!

I am pretty happy with my 10.59! Not bad for a 4050 lbs car at 7600 DA! I went out in the second round. No traction. It really spun them hard at the hit!

Also, Thank You for the valve cover gaskets! It's always nice to pit next to someone who shares.
