Ummm Super Street is 10.90 What stop and what was your MPH on the stop? Congrats on the new best though. Hard to beat track prep for Divisional races for sure.

Loosing three to four MPH is not bad. Although at 135 you should be able to get most all of that out of it in S/ST, at least within a MPH or two. What are your timer numbers. What is timer one set at and what is the down power RPM? Killing it as soon as possible and as much as possible is the key to spending the least amount of time on the stop and getting the most MPH out of it.
FWIW I loose 10-12mph on the stop. I have been 169 all out usually high 160's on the stop I am 155-158 depending on the air at 10.90. My number one timer is at .000, timer two is now just under 4 seconds since switching to the disc stop last year. I was on the stop for almost 4.5 seconds wit the blade type set up. I shift at .50-.75, I use this number to hit ideal 60' times for my combo and to adjust the speed of the car. We also will play with the timing to keep it in the upper mid/upper 150's. My down power is 3950, off the stop as slow as the stop will open.
I love S/ST racing. The challenge of getting the car to repeat the same number over a weekend is a great challenge. As well as trying to get it to run that smae number at different tracks under varying conditions. Glad to see you have stepped into the S/ST pool, great bunch of racers and a very challenging class.
