Yes, in a way. Making boost at altitude is harder though. Not sure if the backpressure is higher at the same boost or not.

When they came down to BG with the same tune from Vegas, the car made an exta 7-8# of boost at the lower altitude. They had to de-tune the car for track conditions in BG.

Thanks Everyone for your support, our best sixty was a 1.20 on the 10.5, Shane its your turn to run some numbers buddy!! Looking forward to seeing everyone in Bowling Green next year, and lining up with the Big wood car for some side by side 6 sec runs. Don't break it before then guy's.

Dusty, man, your are the **** on the convertor setup. Call me I have slip % numbers you are going to like. You and the guys at PTC hooked us up in a bind and everyone here appreciates your hard work.

Dick and Julie Kereny thank's for being a great friends and hanging out with us this weekend, we needed your support and cheering.

John and Marka Gallina thanks for allowing us to achieve these goals with you. You are the most gracious hosts I have ever met. Mix a mean JD and Coke too by the way.

Kenny D. you are the #1 tuner and one of the nicest most down to earth people in the world, even when we make a few mistakes on set up you stick with us and work it out, thanks for everything looking forward to BG.


Jan

Your welcome Jan. PM me your #'s so I can give you a call tomorrow.

You guys forced us to get pretty radical with a never used converter design. Just the thought of having to spool 2 42/76's without n2o with only 274 inches, and on gas........dude I was sleepless. To be honest. I was expecting at least 15% slip but I just wanted you guys to be able to race. To sit back and watch the team squeak 202+ out of it, damn. Like I said, working with this caliber team is always a pleasure. Glad I could help.

My thoughts exactly Otto, thanks for your help also, you are always around when someone needs help, we might need to try a few convertors this year at BG.

P.S. Bring Russs, Ya Dude!

I will try to get Dan Berry to go.

Our powerglide and turbo 400 transmissions are built by Len Freeman of Performance Transmissions. Convertors are PTC, from Dusty Bradford. I would have figured you would have been smart enough to put that together for yourself.

The 400 is gettin it done without a bunch of high dollar parts also, has been a bulletproof combo.
We owe it all to the skill and attention to detail that Len puts in all his work. Couldn't do it without him.
