Man, .002 from 9.49!! 9.501 I will take it. 5.99 @ 113 mph in the 8th. Last time out last year it was doing 6.04 in the 8th.
A new best from 9.514. The carb could've used more jet. And there is still some tuning to do.
Of course RBRE freshened and put more comp. in the engine this winter.
So I see this guy @ 66, he's there helping his brother race. He says "did you change engines? I heard your new engine was all ------ up" I said HUH, whoever is spreading that RUMOR must be smoking crack.
I've been in the low 9.50s for a few years now. It will be cool to break another ET threshhold. Don
