Well I have posted before and people usually enjoy seeing it so here's last night's grudge race.
We've gone back and forth online, we sit exactly the same. He said he was the baddest nitrous small block street car around here and I strongly disagreed and was willing to put my money where my mouth is and put my car in the beams. Both on 26" radials. Yes I got tree'd I didn't want to go red and figured I'd get around him.
The shutdown area​ was extremely scary and I am thankful to be in good health minus some soreness and kept the car off the wall! Camera is on his car

Brad is correct, it is a clocks off only car, not the fastest out there but in a couple races it's made about $3000 so I'm happy.
Seems like maybe a calliper stuck then when I settled into the brakes again it locked, smoked the tire and blew a front runner.
While I was sliding backwards I smashed the gas to try and kill momentum and it saved me

I would suggest that next time you bag it if you are that much out front to keep the speeds down and ET presumptions to a minimum.
You were lucky in not wrecking.
Glad you saved more than just your car. Good running specimen.

It was at Great Lakes Dragaway in Union Grove, Wisconsin. It was a little cold for the power I put in it, had to pedal twice early in the run to keep the front end down. Thanks for the compliments, we're really close to having a bad hot rod. I would love to share the 60' it cut on a 26 but I can't!

Your opponents car looks like either an early Mustang or early Demon or Camaro?
Keep your times to yourself and make your Mojo as long as you can.
No offense to anyone here, but friendly fire info ultimately leaks out fast out of excitement.
Be safe.
