Got the car buttoned up Wednesday, and took it to my buddy Patrick this morning to move the seat back. Put in a new set of belts while I was at it.

Took it out to 41. Drove it up to Tech and back, then checked for leaks and such. All looked good, so off to staging. Not many cars, so I drove right into the right lane. Did a good John Force burnout and staged it up. Left decent, but I knocked the Cheetah shifter from 1st to 3rd. Still went 15:26@86. Also noticed I still had the scoop taped shut.

Opened that up and went up for another shot. Got all 3 gears this time and picked up a 14:25@94 timeslip.

Rain was on the horizon so I hurried up and made 1 last hit. Car sounded great, and went 13:95@95. I drove it up on the trailer just before it poured.

I was expecting the car to run high 14's so I am ecstatic to say the least. Got to give it just a little more love then off to Clay City in 2 weeks.
