    New best 9/29/11

    Only took 3 passes tonight and was happy enough to leave. Oil down, dew settling and rain on the way(was raining by time I got home) I called it a night.

    Wasn't great air but I left fuel alone as I had it at Quaker on 9/17
    12.31@110.05 (1.61 sixty) heard it spin

    12.27@110.40 (1.62 sixty) heard it spin

    Raised launch 200rpm and left at 6000
    12.18@110.70 (1.58 sixty) hooked and left real hard. Pretty sure front tires were off ground. Also new best 1/8 mph of 88.50 and cracked 101mph at 1000' Car needs more fuel added from 4-7k and hope to play with that saterday if weather nice.

    Quaker pass I lifted on left, PRP pass tonight on right

    I think I could have gotten away with much higher launch rpm on last pass. Car has run that sixty a few times before but never felt it leave that hard. Think I have struts and shocks dialed in pretty good. Will keep bringing it up till track won't hold. Ah well another day to play I suppose.

    Oh yah car has a BBK catted X-pipe on it :D

    Nice runs Ed! I bet both passes would have been very close. Probably both 12.18. You were .009 fast at the 1000ft on the QCR pass but the mph was higher in the 1000ft on the PRP. My guess is they would have been very close.
