Never thought I'd have so much trouble slowing it down. Doug It can be a bit{h to slow a car down... put in a longer bolt... I lower the launch RPM and the shift points also

Then it all went wrong. I bumped in to far and went .027 red, car fell off to 9.539, My opponent went 8.761 on a 8.75 index with a .004 light. Hope I've got all this out of my system for tomorrow.

Very nice running and looking car. 1970 Duster Edelbrock headed 408 5.984@112.52 422 Indy headed small block 5.982@112.56 mph 9.42@138.27 Livin and lovin life one day at a time

I thought that as well. After watching the video I think it spun. I did roll in, buy not much. I think I missed the tree. I haven't got a good handle on hitting the index all weekend. What worked on the old car isn't phasing this one much. We'll take another stab in the dark tomorrow. Doug
