Thanks, bro.

I'm pretty sure that I'll get into the nines when I put the 4.30s in and work out a couple of other minor bugs.

That pass was my best so far. I know the car will do nines with a little more tuning . . . it's almost there.

Thanks, bro.

This was more a matter of tuning. I finally got the bugs worked out so I could concentrate on the car. Here's how it went:

1st run off the trailer was 10.35 at 132.6 mph wit a 1.52 sixty foot. My shift light was set at 6900 and my 2-step was set at 4800.

2nd run, I lowered the 2 step to 4200 and set the shift light at 6500. The car went 10.25 at 131.5 aith a 1.46 sixty foot time.

3rd run, I lowered the 2 step to 3800 and kept the shift light at 6500. The car went 10.208 at 132.8 with a 1.449 sixty foot.

4th run, no changes. The car went 10.213 at 131.8 with a 1.445 sixty foot.

So, the last two runs, with no adjustments between them, the car was within 5 thousandths in the ET. I'll take that kind of consistency any day.

I made some suspension adjustments before I went to the track, so the car was launching good and straight. I wasn't cutting lights like I did a couple weeks ago. All I could muster was a .005 (compared to the .004 and .001 from the last race). And, I went to sleep first round of eliminatios and cut a .092 . . . . I was apparently watching the in car movie before I decided to let go of the button . . lol

Yeah . . I saw you drive by in the pits. I had some decent reactions, too . . . .002, .007, and -.002 Easier with my T-Brake than with a clutch, though. Nice job.
