    New Best Tonight

    Went to test and tune tonight on my 9" slicks to try some things. Some worked, some didn't, but I ended up with a new best.

    60' - 1.62
    1/8th - 7.49 @ 92.14
    1/4 - 11.73 @ 117.07

    60' times still arent back where I was, but it's running on the top end now and the transmission has been flawless.

    Tonight was really weird .. .everything looked like it should have been killer air, but my best was the second pass (first was the same combo from MIR).

    Awesome, Bob!

    I thought it would have been a quicker night too, but I guess maybe the humidity was up after the week's rain? Mikey and Barry's numbers weren't what I was expecting either, with the temps, though they were good and consistent.

    I heard a couple people say they were running a little slower last night, it seemed like it should have been great air. Is there some way to figure the DA last night? Car looked great bob, nice MPH

    Thanks guys!

    I still have work to do to get back to a consistant launch but I'm happy as I can be with the car down track.

    I was at MIR last weekend, apparently NMRA makes them turn off the ambient N2O for their events ... I need to get mine somewhere it's down hill and with N2O ... That or just start looking for magic ... magic always works.

    This was right about what I was expecting for MPH, I had tested with the same set-up on slicks and went 116.34 with a bog in similar DA.

    Fall rentals at Rising Sun will have that deadly combo. Don't worry about 60 footin' it. Your 330' will be killer!
