Race weight, over 3700lbs w/ my fat ass in it
1st pass:
Trans brake, 8lbs of boost, 4000 rpm launch... blew the slicks off at the hit, pedaled it, got out of shape again badly, aborted run
2nd pass:
foot brake, 0lbs of boost, 2500 rpm launch
1.72 60', pedaled when it came into boost,
10.19 @ 144.19 mph
Need to put new front springs in (to get it off the bump stops), get it aligned (it was a scary bitch on the big end) and sort out the boost controller.
Should run 9.70's, maybe 9.60's when its right.
I did figure out today that I plumbed the remote water pump incorrectly, should be fixed for the next time out!

MPH looks promising
