    Troy texted me and said he’s the reason you hit the 9’s....because he told you to launch off idle.

    Hair has been gone some time, it's the driver weight reduction mod that helping on the hundredths.

    I noticed the weight reduction.

    That video overall length is 13 seconds. Most cars barely make a full pass in that length of time let along staging, launch and reading the time board! Nice work.

    I barely recognized you in that photo. Guess it's been way to long since we had a conversation in person.

    thanks again. It’s to the point most of the young ones at the track don’t even know what it is, lol. Dinosaurs

    I think it’s broader than young ones. A lot of the ones is see with imports, coyote cars, etc still have sticks. It starts to get rarer the more you go to the track .... he’ll ive got Performance Automatic on speed dial

    I remember seeing this car at the track breaking into the 10's and thinking how impressive that was. Now breaking into the 9's, that takes it to a whole other level. Congrats, that's one hell of an accomplishment!

    Thanks, yeah I really thought I got most of it out of the car when it went into the 10’s ... trying to race 10.50 index was a bit of a stretch ... it really surprises me to not only make a 9 second pass, then back it up, then turn around and actually race with it in the 9’s and even better it. Scary enough, there still seems to be more in it if I leaned on it.
