8.90s at 150 mph at 3900 lbs.

If/when it breaks, I'll be pricing my options.


Are using a Transbrake??

No. The trans has a brake in it, but I don't use it. Always footbraked the car.
So what does this car 60' on the footbrake?

Best 60' on motor is 1.320.
Best 60' on nitrous is 1.311, but unsure if it tripped the beams w/ the front tires or something under the car b/c the front end came down somewhere close to the 60'.
My best pass ever was a 1.409 sixty, definitely tripped w/ the back tires on that pass.
